Early Origins of the Chaudenays family
The surname Chaudenays was first found in Burgundy (French: Bourgogne), an administrative and historical region of east-central France, where the family has held a

Several of his descendants have been noted because of their high positions in society. Jean II was the Sieur of Blaisy and died in 1310. Alexandre was an honored Knight of the Duke in 1322. Guy II was the Lord of Chaudenay and died in 1358. Jean III was a Knight in 1337. Another Guy was the Abbot of Tulley in the County of Bourgogne, and died in 1343.
