François Le Grelle (1671-1729) married Catherine de Schepper, the last descendant of the oldest branch of an old family of aldermen in Mechelen since the 16th century. It is from this family that the Le Grelle family will take its coat of arms.

The Le Grelle family is a family of imperial, Dutch, Papal, and Belgian nobility.
