1633. Vincent wrote to Louise and told her that he thought Marie Jolly was a wonderful choice to begin the project of the Company of the Daughters of Charity.
1649. Vincent wrote to Louise and spoke about the situation of several candidates who have left: "You are a little too sensitive about the departure of your sisters. In the name of God, Mademoiselle, work at acquiring the grace of acceptance in such situations. Purging the Company in this way is an act of mercy Our Lord is granting it and will be one of the first things Our Lord will let you see in heaven. Meanwhile you have the assurance that not one of those whom Our Lord has called to the Company will abandon her vocation."
1649. Vincent de Paul, the Duchess of Aiguillon and Mademoiselle Romilly attempt to arrange marriage for Louise’s de Marillac son, Michael.
1672. In the feast day of St. Lazare, Fr. René Alméras, the first successor of Vincent as Superior General of the Congregation, dies at half past nine in the morning. He was born on February 5, 1613 in Paris and received in St. Lazare on December 24, 1637.
1675. Jacques Amelot signed contract with Mother Nicole Haran and three sisters officers establishing two sisters to serve the sick, disabled and other needy of the parish of Maurée and hamlets surrounding the diocese of Chartres. In the age of six Jacques Amelot was tutored by Michel de Marillac, the tutor of Louise de Marillac. In 1601 His widowed mother married Michel de Marillac, the future custodian of the Seals, also a widower for a year.
1680. Two sisters were sent to Thibouville near Bernay for the care of sick and the education of girls. The marquis of Rivière Thibouville will establish a pension in their favour on October 27, 1694.
1720. Mother Sébastienne Mazurier, assisted by her advisers and with the agreement of Superior General, in the presence of notaries, declared no establishment in Baye (cf. May 25, 1678). The pension provided in 1680 was no longer paid as a result of sale of Barony.
