  1. Some sources wrongly give Léon de Sorel's name as Léon Dyel de Sorel. This is due to confusion with Jean Jacques Dyel, Comte de Sorel, son of Jacques Dyel du Parquet (1606–1658), first governor of Martinique. He bought the estate of Sorel in 1667 from the Duke of Chevreuse. He styled himself comte de Sorel, as did his son François Jacques and his cousin Jean Dyel de Graville Duparquel. The Dyels de Sorel were not related to Léon de Sorel.[1]
