context_page_description: The Roquefeuil family is a French noble family. The house of Roquefeuil-Blanquefort appeared in 1393 when Jean of Blanquefort married Catherine of Roquefeuil-Anduze. Jean substituted its name and gave birth to the House of Roquefeuil-Blanquefort.
  This family gave birth to different branches including Roquefeuil-Monpeyroux, Roquefeuil du Bousquet or Roquefeuil-Cahuzac.
  The Roquefeuil-Blanquefort family is a member of the Society of the Cincinnati.
  There is no evidence or presumption that the name would, as some would allege, have been Germanized into "Rockefeller" or "Rockenfeld".
