Abstract

Little has ben written about the members of the Brongniart family, some of whom were to become famous. Ignace-Théodore

Brongniart (1707-1765) was the first to quit his native province to settle in the French capital, where he married the daughter of

the apothecary Nicolas de Fourcroy. Ignace Brongniart was received among the ranks of the merchant apothecaries of Paris, and

established himself in the Rue de la Harpe, at the sign of the Royal Torch. His son succeeded him in the pharmacy, and two

grandsons became pharmacists. He was highly respected in his profession and for three years in succession he held the office of

garde des apothicaires. In the parish of Saint-Séverin he was appointed churchwarden and keeper of the Chapel of the Holy

Virgin. Four invoices relating to his funeral shed an interesting light on the social history of the pharmacist in the middle of the

18th century.
