The Rogier de Beaufort family (also Roger de Beaufort de Turenne ) comes from the lower nobility of the Limousin , from Rosiers in the Corrèze department . You belong with Clemens VI. (1343-1352) and Gregory XI. (1370–1378) two popes (as well as another who refused the election in 1362), plus a number of cardinals due to a pronounced nepotism , and was thus one of the most powerful families in France for several decades.

Roger († 1380) was appointed Count of Beaufort by the king in 1346 , his younger brother Hugues Roger became bishop of Tulle in 1342 , and then cardinal in the same year. Guillaume III. Roger de Beaufort († 1394), son of Guillaume II, married Aliénor de Comminges in 1349 and became Viscount de Turenne . Pierre Roger de Beaufort became cardinal in 1349 and as Gregory XI in 1371. Pope, Jean Roger de Beaufort became Archbishop of Auch in 1371 , Archbishop of Narbonne in 1373 , and their brother-in-law, Hugues de la Roche, was Justice Marshal of the Church. The sons of Clement VI's sister, Guillemette, Guillaume de La Jugie and Pierre de La Jugie became cardinals.
