François André Michaux (16 August 1770 – 23 October 1855) was a French botanist, son of André Michaux and the namesake of Michaux State Forest in Pennsylvania. Michaux ''père'' botanized in North America for nearly a dozen years (1785–96) as royal collector for France.〔Rembert, David H. Jr., (André Michaux's Travels and Plant Discoveries in the Carolinas ), ''Castanea'' (Journal of the Southern Appalachian Botanical Club via highbeam.com), 2004-12-1. Accessed 2013-1-8. The (December 2004 issue ) of ''Castanea'' has a substantial number of articles on Michaux.〕 ==Travels== Michaux accompanied his father to the United States, and his ''Histoire des arbres forestiers de l'Amérique septentrionale'' (three volumes, 1810–13) contains the results of his explorations, giving an account of the distribution and the scientific classification of the principal American timber trees north of Mexico and east of the Rocky Mountains. Michaux trekked the Allegheny Mountains in 1789 when trans-Allegheny travel was limited to indigenous peoples' trails and one military trail, Braddock Road, built in 1751. He travelled with friend and botantist John Fraser to the summit of the Great Roan.〔Brendel, Frederick, (Historical Sketch of the Science of Botany in North America from 1635 to 1840 ), ''The American Naturalist'', 13:12 (Dec. 1879), pp. 754-771, ''The University of Chicago Press''.
