Biography

He was the son of François, seigneur de Molines. He married Marie de L'Aubespine (d. 5 June 1591), daughter of Gilles de l'Aubespine, and cousin of Claude II de l’Aubespine on 13 February 1583.[2] They had a son Henri Claude Pinart, Marquis de Louvois, Vicomte de Comblizy and a daughter Madeleine (d. 6 April 1654 in Paris).

He was close to Catherine de' Medici, and accompanied her in 1578 and 1579.[3]

In 1575, he visited Sweden for the negotiations of a possible marriage between Henry III and Princess Elizabeth of Sweden. He visited England as part of an embassy to Elizabeth I in April 1581.[4]

He was succeeded by Louis de Revol in 1588 and, after he became retired, he was installed as military governor along with a family from Château-Thierry.
