 Pierre André de Suffren de Saint Tropez - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pierre André de Suffren de Saint Tropez (July 17, 1729 - December 8, 1788) - French admiral; was the third son of the marquis de Saint Tropez, head of a family of nobles of Provence which claimed to have emigrated from Lucca in the 14th century.
He was born in the Château de Saint Canat, near Aix-en-Provence in the present département of Bouches-du-Rhône.
During the Seven Years' War he had the unwonted good fortune to be present as lieutenant in the Orphée in the action with Admiral Byng, which, if not strictly speaking a victory, was at least not a defeat for the French, and was followed by the surrender of the English garrison of Minorca.
