Born Jean-Baptiste Honoré Raymond Capefigue, he was a French writer, historian, and journalist associated with the 19th century. French reference sources identify him as the son of a cloth merchant, note that he studied law in Paris, and record that he entered the École royale des chartes in 1821 before turning quickly toward journalism.
He contributed to several newspapers and journals, including La Quotidienne, Le Temps, Le Messager des Chambres, and L'Ami de la religion et du roi. His work focused heavily on political and royal history, and library records show a very large body of publications, including books on the Bourbon Restoration, European governments, and major figures from French history.
