This typology allows to consider the plurality of family organisations, that are sometimes analysed independently in the literature. It is based on an analysis of 119 biographical interviews, carried out in 2022 with elderly people born between 1935 and 1959 and living in France. The results show that while the close family circle (strong affinity and mutual support relations and geographical proximity) remains the most common family model, extreme cases such as cohabitation or isolation are not insignificant. These identified family models are not static and evolve according to family events. In particular, retirement appears to be an important stage in shaping relationships with close relatives. As people get older, remote “family-making” can become a challenge.Cet article propose une typologie des configurations familiales au cours de la vieillesse, qui permet de penser la pluralité des organisations familiales, parfois analysées indépendamment dans la littérature. Il s’appuie sur une analyse de 119 entretiens biographiques, réalisés en 2022 auprès de personnes âgées nées entre 1935 et 1959 et vivant en France. Il ressort que si la famille-entourage (relations d’affinité et d’entraide fortes et proximité géographique) reste le mode de fonctionnement familial le plus fréquent, les situations de cohabitation inter-générationnelles ou d’isolement ne sont pas négligeables. Ces modèles identifiés ne sont pas immuables et évoluent au gré des évènements familiaux. Le moment de la retraite apparaît en particulier comme une étape importante dans l’agencement des relations avec les proches. Enfin, l’âge avançant, « faire famille » à distance peut devenir un obstacle.Cairn free access
