==History== The history and derivation of the name of Mairé-L'Evescault are closely linked to that of Saint Junian (Junien), the patron saint of Poitou ploughmen. He was born in the year AD 500 or AD 501 in the area of "Briosso" (now called Briançais) on an estate named "Champagné" which still exists close to the village of Mairé in the commune of Perigné, Deux-Sèvres, and was educated by his parents who were Gallo-Roman nobility.
