Jules de Reiset

Agriculture, General and Allied Sciences

Jules de Reiset (1818 to 1896) was a French agricultural chemist, politician and member of the Académie des Sciences. Born in Rouen to Jacques de Reiset, he came from a family of art collectors, his brothers being Frédéric and Gustave. He married Juliette, daughter of Charles Lebègue de Germiny, finance minister and governor of the Banque de France. While serving as mayor of Anneville-sur-Scie and as a conseiller général for Seine-Inférieure he was elected deputy for Seine-Inférieure in the Corps législatif on 11 December 1859, joined the dynastic majority and voted with it until he retired from political life at the 1863 election. He bought the château d'Arques-la-Bataille and thereby saved it from complete destruction, and he died in Paris. The Wikipedia article gives few details of his chemical work beyond his description as an agricultural chemist.
