Neuville
NEUVILLE. Two French brothers incorrectly identified in American works as the chevalier de la Neuville and Noirmont de la Neuville should properly be identified by the family name of Penot Lombart. They are most properly identified as Louis Pierre Penot Lombart, chevalier de La Neuville, and Rene-Hippolyte Penot Lombart de Noirmont de la Neuville.
