He appears in Edinburgh around 1830, both as a teacher and prodigious author of educational French text books. He was a master at the Scottish Military and Naval Academy, an Edinburgh institution 'for training young men, chiefly for the service of the royal and East India Company's services; Surenne also contributed to the various branches of military education such as fortification, military drawing, gun-drill, and military exercises.〔James Grant, ''Old and New Edinburgh'', vol. 3, p. 138〕 The Academy was closed in the late 19th century. In later life he is listed as living with his wife and daughter, Elizabeth Surenne, at 8 Great King Street in Edinburgh's Second New Town, reflecting a fairly noble life-style.〔Edinburgh and Leith Post Office Directory 1857-8〕 He died in Edinburgh in 1858. 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「Gabriel Jacques Surenne」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
