Louis Charles Eugène Joseph de Fouchier

b. 1869

A French writer and magistrate, he left behind travel writing and at least one translated work while also building a long career at the Cour des comptes. His life seems to have bridged literature, public service, and a well-documented French family line.

About the author

Born in Angers on February 13, 1869, Louis Charles Eugène Joseph de Fouchier was a French author and senior public official. Records from the Bibliothèque nationale de France identify him as a doctor of law, an avocat général at the Cour des comptes, and later a conseiller référendaire there.

His surviving bibliography appears to be small but interesting. Project Gutenberg lists him as a co-author, with Gérard de Beauregard, of In Portugal in Dutch translation, and archive records also show Un mois aux Pyrénées, suggesting a taste for travel writing.

He died in Paris in April 1962. Available reference sources also note that he was the brother of Charles de Fouchier and the father of Jacques de Fouchier, placing him within a family that remained visible in French public life.
