2. Benedictine abbey in France
Senones Abbey (Abbaye de Senones) was a Benedictine abbey located in the valley of the Rabodeau, in the present village of Senones in Grand Est, France.
The abbey was founded in the middle of the 7th century
by Saint Gondelbert, bishop of Sens, who was also the first abbot.
Gondelbert arrived in the Rabodeau valley and named
his monastery after the diocese of Sens (Senonis in Latin).
In 661, Childeric II, king of Austrasia, donated the Val
de Senones to Gondelbert, who dedicated the church to Notre Dame.
The monks followed the Rule of Saint Benedict.

3. Gallic tribe
The Senones or Senonii (Gaulish: "the ancient ones") were an ancient Gallic tribe dwelling in the Seine basin, around present-day Sens, during the Iron Age and the Roman period.
Part of the Senones settled in the Italian peninsula, where they ousted the Umbrians between Ariminum (modern-day Rimini) and Ancona.
They are described in classical sources as the leaders of the Gallic war-band that captured Rome during the Battle of the Allia in 390 BC.
They remained a constant threat until Rome eventually subjugated them in 283 BC, after which they disappeared from Italy.

4. Surname:
Marion Sénones (born Marcelle Borne; 1886 – 1977), was a French painter, illustrator and traveler.
In 1931, she met traveler
and ethnologist Odette du Puigaudeau and the pair would remain together for the
rest of their lives.
In 1933, the artist assumed
the pseudonym Marion Sénones, apparently at the urging of Puigaudeau.
The two women spent several
years doing field work with the nomads of western Sahara, specifically
Mauritania.
Sénones illustrated many of
Puigaudeau's works.
