The de Montesquiou family is a French noble family stemming from Montesquiou in Gascony whose documented filiation traces back to circa 1190.[1] In the 18th Century, the family was recognized as coming in the 11th century from the Counts of Fezensac (extinct in the 12th Century). The Montesquiou family split into several branches, of which only the d'Artagnan branch now remains.
