Note: The illustration is taken from the cover of Francois' & Mario's
d'Hotman printed Genealogy, and came from records held by von d'Uthman,
the German branch of the family.
A second historical genealogy.  In this instance I have been
fortunate enough to obtain sufficient information from public sources and
the assistance of my nephew Geoffrey Audcent, in examining various English
texts, to set out this famous French Legal family from whom the Audcent
and Pinot de Moira families of England descend.  In 1997,
Geoffrey visited Paris, France and returned with an extensive extract from
the "Dictionnaire de la Noblesse" reprinted in 1980, and I have updated this
work as a result of this latest knowledge. There does appear to be minor
variations in spelling between the various sources!
In October 1999, Cousin Jean-Pierre Hotman
de Villiers St Pol of Botswana, contacted me with the line of his descendance
(via the 4th branch of the HOTMAN family) and the information has been duly
added - my thanks to him for his kindness. 
In April 2000, Cousins Francois
 & Mario d'Hotman de Villiers  St Paul,
cousins, of Mauritius provided me with a specially printed family Genealogy
(No 49) produced by themselves on their family HOTMAN.  There are
differences in detail and I have noted these below marked as follows:
(F&M in red italics).  Where
the differences were minor, I have not taken account of them.
They also sent me the up-to-date line of their own branch of the
family, which I have now been able to include - my thanks also to them.
  
GENEALOGY
of the family HOTMAN (Seigneurs et Marquis de Villiers-St-Paul, Oise,
France)
(also noted by the family, Barons of d'Acheres
(Yvelines); Seigneurs de Fontenay, Mortefontaine (nr Plailly, Oise), Villegomblin
(?), Marigny (? Is this Marigny-en-Orxois), Rougemont (?), Montmelian (the
only place of this name is in Savoie, France), Maires (?) and other
lands).
  
    | At the commencement of the 16th century, the family Hotman were
      already one of the most important legal families in Paris.  With others
      they enjoyed an important role under the following Kings of France, Charles
      IX, Henri III and Henri IV.  The family originate from an area of modern
      Poland, known as Silesia, and Lambert the son of Gerard the first known of
      the family came to Paris, France from the town of Emerich, in the duchy of
      Cleves. 
       
      One interesting fact is that my nephew Geoffrey Audcent, who has
      undertaken some research on this family, found a printed portrait of Francois
      Hotman, the famous professor of law, and his visual appearance (3/4 view)
      was identical to a photograph of my GG Grandfather Hippolyte 'Henri'
      Pinot de Moira (himself a lawyer), who was born some nine
      generations later.

OTHER
DESCENDANTS OF HOTMAN FAMILY
It is my usual practice to include only 3 generations from the original
name, but Luc Chaput in Canada kindly indicated to me the descent of both
the present King and Queen of Belgium from the Hotman family and so I include
his well documented line here for everyone's interest.  The descendants
of Lucrece-Marie Bouhier to Eugenie Empress of the French are passed to me
by Leo van de Pas.
