Thank you, Bill. I am aware of that Wikipedia article, and it merely listed a father and son, both with the first name of Pierre.
Rolf Lislevand , on :a Belle Homicie, performs one piece, a sarabande in C, by Nicolas Dubut (1638-ca. 1692). Those birth and death dates [both Pierre Dubut's] do not match the birth and death dates of Nicolas Dubut. So, were there three Dubut lutenists?
