En 1452-53, le chapitre de StOmer prête un “breviaire en ij tamps … a messire Rasse de Lavenne”, dont la fonction n’est pas précisée (au même foliot, un autre bréviaire est prêté à Vincent Breion, alors apparemment vicaire de St-Omer).
Planchart: Rasse de la Verne: was a small vicar from 24 June 1457 to 24 March 1458, 17 April 1458 to 19 March 1459, and 15 October 1460 to 01 October 1468 [LAN, 7456, 7r-7v; 4G 7457, 8r; 4G 7459, 6r; 7467, 5v; CBM 1060, 17v]. The aumosne for 1465-66 indicates that Jehan du Sart had recently been relieved as magister puerorum and Rasse de la Verne had been temporarily installed [LAN, 4G 7764 (1465-66), 4r and 25r]. He was formally installed as magister puerorum on 20 January 1466 on the condition that he expel his servant Jehanne and try get her to leave Cambrai, and evict Marc, a young lodger in his house [CBM 1060, 233v]. The chapter acts have a lacuna from 1468 to 1476, but the aumosne for 1466-67 notes that Rasse left the office sometime during that year and was replaced by Robert le Canoine [LAN, 4G 7764 (1466-67), 14r]. He was a composer, and the accounts of the fabric for 1463-64 record Symon Mellet copying a mass written by Rasse, [LAN, 4G 4671, 24r]. One of his short absences was apparently to conduct some business at St. Omer, since the account of the aumosne for 1457-58 reports a gift of 12 lb to Rasse “on his return from St. Omer” [LAN, 4G 7763 (1457-58), 18r]. On 19 December1466 a chaplaincy at the altar of the Trinity, resigned by Martin Tranchet, was granted to Rasse de la Verne [CBM 1060, 254r]. He is probably not the Grégoire Rasse who joined the grand community of chaplains in 1466-67 and appears in the lists until 1471-72 [LAN, 4G 6940, 13r; 4G 4G 6944, 19r].
