Louis-François Allard
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Louis-François Allard (17 August 1735 - 30 June 1819) was a French physician and politician.
His father, René Allard, was a merchant and a public figure in Craon: he was convened in 1770 by the Présidial Councillor, as well as master Jacques-René Chassebœuf (father of Volney), lawyer at Craon and former administrator of the hospital, to deliberate on the reforms to the mismanagement of the Hôtel-Dieu de Craon. René Allard married Marthe-Marie Gousset on 10 May 1734 and she gave him a son who received the names of Louis François.
He became medical doctor in the University of Angers on 19 November 1754. On 22 February 1759 he married Marie-Marguerite Millet. This marriage fixed him in Château-Gontier and he was incorporated into the physicians college of this city.
In 1786, with his colleagues René Theulier and Louis Jousselin, he wrote and sent to the intendant, a memorandum on the status of the city and its ferruginous mineral waters, known as of Baths of Château-Gontier (fr).[1]
