An important but obscure clue to his ancestry is contained in an account of the division of a woodlot called the Bois de Bourguignon in 1713-1714 (ACV DK 82/9, Jean Pierre Monod, notary, loose papers). Acting in his own name and with unnamed others (his "indivis"), he made a claim based on "droit de quart qui est la portion d'Abraham Convers", but retracted the claim apparently after settling with some of the other claimants. At first, we assumed that his claim actually related to the descent of the other claimants from Gabriel, son of Anthoine Monod.
However, the situation now seems more complicated. The titles upon which these claims were based (01 dec 1605 and 09 feb 1606, both recorded by Estienne Mayor) have not been located. But the terrier ACV Fg 159 (1678) shows that most of the property dependent on the Baron of Aubonne that was then owned by Eg. Jean Mayor, grandfather of the present Jean Samuel Mayor, had previously (1622, Fh 175) been owned by Jaquemaz Convers, widow of Isaac Monod. The same terriers also indicate that Isaac Monod and Jaquemaz Convers had a daughter Jeanne Monod. The conclusion seems inescapable that this Jeanne Monod was the one who married Eg. Jean Mayor. The father of Jaquemaz Convers was indeed Abraham Convers. We have yet been able to connect Abraham with Isaac Convers, the father of one of the principal claimants, the minister Gabriel Convers. However, both Abraham and Isaac were the sons of a Pierre Convers who in turn was the son of a Jean Convers—but possibly not the same Pierre and not the same Jean!

Her marriage to François Fazan of Apples is revealed in a settlement with her brothers Philippe and Estienne Gabriel after the death of her husband, 11 mar 1696 (Daniel Marmet, notary, ACV DK 69/1, based on a previous settlement of 16 may 1678 "reçu Egrège Croutaz"). A further document in the same register dated 01 mar 1701 shows that Jeanne Mayor, widow of the late François Fazan of Apples, authorized by her brothers Philippe and Estienne Gabriel Mayor, was now ceding to Félix Morel and his wife Jeanne Dorothée Cuvit her claim on the estate of the late Gabrielle Morellon, wife of the late Jean Louis Cuvit, justicier de Mollens. Exactly how Jeanne would have had a claim on that estate is not clear. Jeanne's sister Jaqueline was the next wife of Jean Louis Cuvit, but that fact would be irrelevant to the succession of Gabrielle.
So far, the parentage of this Gabrielle Morellon is not known. However, it is possible she was the same Gabrielle who was the widow of Augustin Mayor. If so, Jeanne Mayor would be her niece, since Augustin Mayor was the brother of Jeanne's father Gédéon Mayor. Gabrielle and Augustin do not seem to have had any children of their own.

She is called Jeanne in most records, but at least once Susanne. At the baptism of her first known child in 1672, the sponsors include Philippe Mayor and his sister Elizabeth Mayor, who are believed to be the children of Gédéon Mayor and Marthe Cloux. Jeanne might be the daughter of this couple born in 1644.

Her testament was recorded 19 sep 1701 by Abraham Mojonnier, curial of Montricher, according to a document recorded 28 jan 1702 by the notary Daniel Marmet (ACV DK 69/1). At that time, she was apparently still alive. Her son George Estienne Pirod was out of the country, and his brothers Jean Louis and Jean Isaac agreed to provide for their mother, whether at Bern or elsewhere.
