description Pancartes represent one of the main groups of diplomatic forms emanating from northern French religious houses in the eleventh and early twelfth centuries, but their composition over time through multiple transactions pose problems for historians, as comparisons with other records often reveal. This article considers an especially problematic pancarte, the final version of which was issued for the Benedictine priory of Saint-Fromond (Manche) in 1239. The discovery of a hitherto unknown copy, which is more complete and apparently more accurate than all other versions, provides an opportunity to reconsider this text and its significance for the history of the priory; for its mother-house, the abbey of Cerisy-la-Forêt; and for the priory’s benefactors, especially the family of Du Hommet.
