Note

Father d'Entremont, a Catholic priest of Nova Scotia, had done most of the research into the "Meuse" and "d'Entremont" families. 

He traced the connection to Huguenot leader Gaspard de Coligny as follows:

"De Coligny's German interpreter and right hand man was a German Protestant named Nicolas Musse. 

When De Coligny's was thrown out of a high window by an angry mob in the Saint Bartholomew's Day Massacre, becoming the first casualty, his sidekick Musse became the second.  

This left De Coligny's widow, Jacqueline Countess d'Entremont, charged with raising the orphan children of Nicolas as well as her own. 

She adopted them, and the Musse children added d'Entremont to their name and grew up as Frenchman. 

It appears that Philippe Mius d'Entremont, who was titled "Procureur du Roi" and "Baron de Pobomcoup" was a grandson of this Nicolas Musse and a son of one of the Musse d'Entremont children adopted by de Coligny's wife Countess Jacqueline d'Entre

mont".
