François de Moulins de Rochefort

François de Moulins de Rochefort (c. 1470–1526), born into Poitevin nobility, became a canon in 1500 and later abbot of Saint-Mesmin de Micy. He served as tutor and almoner to the young Francis of Angoulême, schooling the future Francis I in Renaissance learning, and around 1510 composed an illuminated Treatise on the Cardinal Virtues for Louise of Savoy.

After Francis took the crown in 1515 he remained a royal councillor, and in 1519 was appointed grand almoner of France, holding that office until his death in 1526.
