Family Lusset

My name is Jakob Jonsson and I am from Sweden. I am looking for more information about my ancestors from Hainaut.
Jan (Johan/Jean) Lusset signed a working contract in Liege year 1625 to work in Sweden for 4 years as a blacksmith. He moved to Sweden the same year with his son Martin (Matthis) Lusset. They stayed in Sweden and Jan called himself Jan Lusset dit Le Galan and all the family members in Sweden took the family Surname Galan. This is still today the family name in Sweden. He came from a village called Virelles just outside the town of Chimay in the region of Hainaut. I have tried to find any information about him or his family in this region without success. I wonder if anybody knows anything about this Lusset family? We have found some records in Sweden showing that they spelled the name in two ways; sometimes Lusset and sometimes Lucet.
It would be very appreciated if somebody could help me with more information.
Best regards,
Jakob

Hej Jakob!
Detta är fyra år senare, sen du skrev ditt inlägg. Men det enda jag vet är att Jans pappa hette Pierre Lusset född ca 1570 i Belgien och stannade av okänd anledning kvar i Belgien när sonen flyttade till Sverige. Om du själv under de senaste fyra åren har fått mer information om honom får du gärna höra av dig.
Vänligen
Frida Johansson
