| - Louis-Henri de Baugy, Chevalier de Baugy (died 1720) was from a noble family of France and came to New France as a member of the party of Joseph-Antoine de La Barre, who was replacing Buade de Frontenac as Governor General. Chevalier de Baugy arrived at Quebec in 1682 and immediately became involved in the fur trade of the Great Lakes; namely, putting an end to the dominant position of Cavelier de La Salle in that area. Under La Barre's authority, de Baugy took control of Fort Saint Louis (Illinois) on the Illinois River from Henri Tonty in 1683. In February, 1684, the fort was besieged by a force of 500 Iroquois for eight days. Despite limited ammunition and provisions, the defenders withstood three assaults, and the Iroquois were forced to abandon their attacks and withdraw the way they had come. In 1685, La Salle was given back control of Fort Saint Louis by the French king. De Baugy took part in at least one more campaign in Canada, in 1687 with Denonville against the Senecas. De Baugy, as Denonville's aide-de-camp, left a valuable journal of his experiences during the expedition. In 1689, he left for France and did not return. (en)
- Louis-Henri, chevalier de Baugy (décédé en 1720) fut membre d'une famille noble de France, et arriva en Nouvelle-France comme membre du groupe de Joseph-Antoine de La Barre, qui fut envoyé pour remplacer Buade de Frontenac comme Gouverneur de la Nouvelle-France. Chevalier de Baugy arriva à Québec en 1682 et s'impliqua dans le marché de la fourrure dans la région des Grands Lacs; mettant fin à la position dominante du Cavelier de La Salle dans cette région. Sous l'autorité de La Barre, de Baugy prit le contrôle du Fort Saint-Louis-des-Illinois sur la rivière Illinois de Henri de Tonti en 1683. En février, 1684, le fort fut assiégé par 500 Iroquois pour huit jours. Malgré le manque de munitions et de provisions, les défenseurs ont soutenu trois assauts, et les Iroquois furent forcés à abandonner leurs attaques et se replier. En 1685, La Salle fut redonné le contrôle du Fort Saint Louis par le roi de France. De Baugy prit donc part à une dernière campagne au Canada en 1687 contre les Senecas, et en 1689 quitta de bon pour la France et ne revint pas. (fr)
