Calvary erected "in devotion to Jacques Riandet and Gabrielle Pitollet, his wife". The Riandet family is typically from Aubigny, as is the Pittolet family. Jacques was nicknamed "the youngest" because his uncle "the eldest" and his father "the youngest" were also called Jacques, and they were all winegrowers in Aubigny! The couple married in Montsaugeon, the county town during the French Revolution, on 10 Pluviôse, Year VII of the French Republic, One and Indivisible (29 January 1799). It is likely that this calvary was built after the Concordat, an agreement signed on 26 Messidor An IX (15 July 1801) by the 1st Consul Bonaparte and Pope Pius VII for the re-establishment of the Catholic, Apostolic and Roman religion in France.
