 Planchart : Jehan de le Quellerie, alias Crassequale (Crassequande): was a small vicar from 02 December 1484 to 15 February 1494 and 13 May 1494 to 27 August 1496 [LAN, 4G 7472 (1484-85), 8r; (1493-94), 11v-12r; (1496-97), 8v]. The wine accounts use the sobriquet (in wildly varying orthographies) until 1491-92 and Quellerie from then on. On 18 June 1485 he was enjoined, under threat of lost wages, to go take music lessons with the choristers [CBM 1061, 216v], an injunction repeated on 10 December 1485 [CBM, 1061, 243r]. In September 1486 he had to be punished for a fight that included the shedding of blood [CBM 1061, 279r], and on 12 February 1492 he killed someone during a procession right after the singing of the Pretiosa [CBM 1061, 415r, 416r]. Possibly as a purgation of this crime he petitioned on 14 February 1494 to be allowed to retain his place as a small vicar while undertaking a pilgrimage to Compostela [CBM 1062, 150r] and indeed the wine accounts report his absence for that reason from 15 February to 13 May 1494. On 27 February 1489 he resigned the chaplaincy of St. James in the parish church of Binche, which went to Jehan Nainekin, alias Binchois [CBM 1061, 330r]. On 06 March 1493 the chaplaincy at the altar of the Trinity in the chapel La Flammenghe, resigned by Jehan Ribault, was granted to Quellerie [CBM 1062, 52v] and Quellerie must have joined the grand community of chaplains in 1493-94 (account lost) since he appears in the lists from 1494-95 to 1496-97 [LAN, 4G 6976, 34r; 4G 6979, 34v]. On 02 June 1497 Quellerie exchanged this chaplaincy for the grand vicariate of Raoul de Molinbel [CBM 1063, 217v]. He was one of the executors of Denis de Hollain, and on 08 November 1503 he was received to the canonicate of Hollain and his grand vicariate went to Louis van Pullaer [CBM 1064, 482v-483r]. He died on 05 February 1505 [CBM 1046, 114v].
