On May 17, 1856 she again ceded the hamlets of Saint-Thia, la Hautaye, Launay-Moussu, la Viette, les Mintes and les Bignons to the municipality of Collinée. The municipality belonged to the Broons district from 1793 to 1801 and was part of the canton of Le Gourray.

Population development
As a result of the hamlets that came to the community in 1828, the number of residents increased significantly between 1821 and 1831 (1821–1831: 33.6%). The growth continued until 1851. After that, the population decreased slightly until 1866. There was a second growth phase between 1891 and 1906 (1891–1911: + 14.9%). Due to the high number of dead and the many flu deaths, the population fell between 1911 and by 203 people (−11.8%). From 1926 until recently there was a strong rural exodus (1926–1999: −57.5%). The number of residents has grown slightly since the turn of the millennium.
