Jacques-Gustave de Malortie, Marquis de Boudeville and Comte de Hombourg, was born in 1665 and died in 1729 at Plombières. He became General Inspector of the Artillery and Dragoons, and Marshal of the King’s Camps and Armies. He married Marie-Thérèse de Brisacier, Dame de Malortie, Marquise de Boudeville and Comtesse de Hombourg in 1691. His mother, Anne de Sarrau, was beheaded in front of the Bastille in 1674 with Prince Louis de Rohan, both accused of conspiring against Louis XIV.
In 1719, Jacques-Gustave altered the appearance of the Château de Hombourg by adding a fourth classical façade.
