Daughter of Thomas, Seigneur de St Jean La Hougue Boeste, Bailiff. An approximate date of marriage for Jean Benest can be gleaned from the following case: C. Hér 1573: "Raulin Benest in right of his wife, Jehan (Jean) Benest in right of his wife, each consent that Hugh Lemprière in right of his [Langlois] wife ... engage Etienne Le Demptu", their wives kinsman, in a dispute regarding inheritance. The two Benests had married sisters, Raulin the uncle, some years before, Jean the nephew, who had probably married an older woman, perhaps that year.
