Talhouët family

The Talhouët family is a French noble lineage associated with the historic Duchy of Brittany. Its origins are traced to the fifteenth century, placing the family within the Breton noble networks that shaped regional military, administrative, and landholding life during the late medieval and early modern periods. The family name is also found in compound forms, including Talhouët-Bonamour and Talhouët-Roy, reflecting branches, inheritances, or marriage-linked developments within the lineage. The available reference material identifies several prominent members. Louis Céleste de Talhouët-Bonamour was born in Rennes in 1761 and died in Paris in 1812. He held military office as a lieutenant in the king’s infantry, became marquis of Talhouët and marquis of Acigné, and was associated with the lordship of Québriac. During the Napoleonic period he received the title of count of the Empire and served as a member and president of the electoral college of Sarthe. His career illustrates the way older noble status could be incorporated into the political and institutional structures of post-Revolutionary France. Auguste-Frédéric de Talhouët, born in 1788 and deceased in 1842, is identified as a marquis of Talhouët and a maréchal de camp. His career continued the family’s military association while also placing him within the restored French peerage and aristocratic order. Auguste de Talhouët-Roy, born in 1819 and deceased in 1884, pursued a political career as a deputy, senator, and minister. His public offices demonstrate the family’s continuing participation in national political life during the nineteenth century. The family’s wider social connections also included Françoise de Talhouët-Roy, who lived from 1818 to 1863 and married Géraud de Crussol d’Uzès, the 11th Duke of Uzès. Such marriages were characteristic of the interconnections among France’s titled families and helped link the Talhouët name to other established aristocratic houses. The Talhouët family should be understood as a historical lineage rather than a commercial brand, operating company, or consumer-facing product house. No evidence in the supplied material establishes a current corporate organization, commercial product portfolio, public listing, or official family website. Its historical significance rests instead on Breton origins, noble titles, military service, electoral and governmental roles, and connections to other aristocratic families. Information about the family’s medieval genealogy, estates, later descendants, and present-day status is limited in the available sources.

The Talhouët family is described as a French noble family from the Duchy of Brittany whose origins date to the fifteenth century. The supplied historical account does not provide a complete genealogy or identify a single founder, but it places the family within the long-standing Breton nobility and records members who later held military, aristocratic, electoral, and governmental positions in France. Louis Céleste de Talhouët-Bonamour was born in Rennes on 5 October 1761 and died in Paris on 5 March 1812. He is described as marquis of Talhouët and marquis of Acigné, lord of Québriac, and a lieutenant in the king’s infantry from 27 April 1788. He later held the title of count of the Empire and served as a member and president of the electoral college of Sarthe. His career spans the end of the Bourbon monarchy, the revolutionary era, and the Napoleonic state, showing how an established noble family could retain public prominence through institutional change. Auguste-Frédéric de Talhouët, who lived from 1788 to 1842, was another marquis of Talhouët. He attained the rank of maréchal de camp, a senior military rank in nineteenth-century France. The available source does not give a fuller account of his campaigns, appointments, or political activities, but his recorded rank confirms the family’s continuing military presence after the revolutionary and Napoleonic periods. Auguste de Talhouët-Roy, born in 1819 and deceased in 1884, became a deputy, senator, and minister. His career represents the family’s participation in representative and executive government during nineteenth-century France. The reference material does not specify the constituencies he represented, the ministry he held, or the dates of those offices, so those details remain unestablished here. Françoise de Talhouët-Roy, who lived from 1818 to 1863, married Géraud de Crussol d’Uzès, identified as the 11th Duke of Uzès. This marriage connected the Talhouët-Roy branch with another prominent French noble house. It also illustrates the broader social and dynastic relationships through which titled families maintained influence and continuity. The supplied material does not document the family’s full history before the fifteenth century, the precise succession of titles, its properties, or the status of descendants after the nineteenth century. It likewise does not establish a modern organization, business, or formal brand identity. Accordingly, the Talhouët family is best catalogued as a historical noble lineage, with its documented public profile centered on Brittany, military service, noble titles, and participation in French political life.
