While the Ban Lordship of Nanteuil-la-Fosse was a feudal of the Kingdom of France in the county of Champagne. The two lordship should not be confused although both converge in the same family. The dinasty de Nanteuil (House of Natoli), House of Châtillon, DuPont de Nemours and de Villebéon are considered close relative, and branches of the same family. Among other relatives appear the Lesigne, in the branch of Villharduin, relatives next the marriage of Erard de Nanteuil La Fosse and Mabile Lesigne (Villharduin). The House of de Nanteuil is extinguished in XIV and survives with his descendants family in the House of Natoli, that italianize the name in the second half of the thirteenth century (Latinized de Nantolio), but also in Lenoncourt, Guise, Schomberg, and Condé-Bourbon. The name de Nanteuil (de Nantolio or Natoli) is sometimes said Nantuillet (named from the French castle near Paris italianate in Castle Nantogliette), also Molière will use these translation in some theatrical text plays. History The Middle Ages The name Nanteuil is traced by some historical researchers from the Castle Nantolium Alduini (Nantolio Houduini or Nantogilum Hilduini or Aldo), sometimes called also de Nantouillet located in the current French canton of Nanteuil-le-Haudouin. The first feudal Lord of the territory, appointed by Count Ugo of Dammartin was Roger de Nanteuil in 1081.
