It is the work, I presume, of Lucien Merlet,
who was then the Archiviste of the departément d'Eure-et-Loir,
and, I also assume, was generated by him from
a careful reading of the documents placed under his care, including,
above all, the various detailed Pouillés (the occasionally-made, parish-by-parish census of the diocese), some of which Merlet had just
published himself in his edition of the Cartulary of the Cathedral (all
of the known pouillés were subsequently
published by Auguste Longnon in his beautiful Academie des Inscriptions
et Belles Lettres edition of the Pouillés de la Province
de Sens (Recueil des Historiens de la France... Pouillés,
IV, Paris, 1904). Within each of these the subdivision
into deaconries varied somewhat. |
