According to Davitt Moroney, M. de la Pierre le vieux is probably Monsieur Paul de la Pierre who had several children: M. de la Pierre L'ésné (l'aine,the elder),also named Paul (Paolo) (born c.1637-died after 1689) and a younger son, Théophyle de la Pierre, which daughter Jeanne (Giovanna) Constance will become Marc-Roger Normand's spouse in 1725. Several harpsichord pieces by those composers are handwritten in the Livre de Tablature de Clavescin de Mr. de Druent écrit par Couperin (Marc-Roger Normand), Turin (ca.1695). Minkoff Reprint (1998). Davitt Moroney editor.
A link between this family and Mademoiselle de la Pierre* is plausible but has not been asserted yet.
