Claude de Bermen de la Martinière (30 May 1636 – 14 April 1719) was born in France and came to New France in 1662. Through marriage, he became the owner of a large seigneury and held a number of important positions throughout his time in Canada. La Martinière married the widow of Jean de Lauson in 1664 and began the development of the Lauson seigneury. He pursued a career in law and held various positions involving the Conseil Souverain and, subsequently, the renamed Conseil Supérieur. He was the acting governor general of the Conseil Souverain for a period and, in 1714, became the subdelegate of the intendant, Michel Bégon. His actions during an absence of Bégon brought to light the intendant's role in a grain shortage which was causing much hardship. Subsequent riots appear to give justification to La Martinière's concerns about a grain monopoly. Claude had two sons, one of whom, Claude-Antoine de Bermen de La Martinière, had a distinguished career in the colonial regular forces. ==External links== * (Biography at the ''Dictionary of Canadian Biography Online'' ) * (''Genealogie Quebec'' ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Claude de Bermen de la Martinière」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
