Does anyone have information on the Louvet Family?

I found a Jean Louvet, father of Marie Louvet (died in 1439) who before 1425 married Jean de Dunois the military leader in the war against England. Jean de Dunois was born in 1402 and so at least 23 when he married. He was married for about 14 years but no children were born.

I am curious about this Jean Louvet, who was he married to and how many more children did he have?

I found "another" Jean Louvet who was seigneur de Thays de Salinière. I only have his name and a daughter. Is this the same Jean Louvet?

This daughter is Jeanne Louvet who on 29 March 1419 in Bourges married Louis II de Joyeuse, Vicomte de Joyeuse. For this couple many descendants are recorded, including Baron Pierre de Coubertin originator of the modern Olympc Games, Louis Joseph de Montcalm 'the Hero of Quebec", Mathieu Amiot de Villeneuve a Gateway Ancestor to Canada, and amongst many others the Royal Families of Belgium, Bulgaria, Luxembourg, Monaco and Spain.

With many thanks.
