Louis-Charles Foucher
Lt-Colonel The Hon. Louis-Charles Foucher (September 13, 1760 – December 26, 1829) was Solicitor General for Lower Canada and elected to the 2nd Parliament of Lower Canada for Montreal West, and afterwards for York and Trois-Rivières. His final position held was Judge of the Court of King's Bench at Montreal. His home from 1820, ''Piedmont'', was one of the early estates of the Golden Square Mile.
==Background==
Born 1760, at Rivière-des-Prairies, Quebec, he was the son of Antoine Foucher (1717-1801) and his first wife Marie-Joachim Chénier (1723-1786), daughter of Jean-Baptiste Chénier (1684-1760), of Lachine, Quebec. Antoine Foucher's father had come to New France as a young man but had returned to his native Bourges in France, where Louis-Charles' father was born, before he too came to Montreal in 1739. Originally a baker, Antoine Foucher had a successful career as a notary at Terrebonne, but he is best remembered as the owner of the first Francophone theatre (staging in 1774 the first production of Molière with various English officers at his home in Montreal) to which he dedicated his small fortune.〔(Le Quebec et Bourgues )〕〔(Societe d'Histoire de la Region de Terrebonne )〕〔(''Theatre and Politics in Modern Quebec'' (1989) by Elaine Nardoccio )〕 Louis-Charles' mother's family had been settled in New France since at least 1651.〔(Genealogie Quebec )〕
