Claude-Nicolas Perier (28 May 1742 - 6 February 1801) was assured an important place in French history when he opened his Château de Vizille near Grenoble to the famous meeting of the estates of the Province of Dauphiny (21 July 1788) heralding the coming of the French Revolution.
 He is notable also as the founder of the remarkable Perier family "bourgeois dynasty" that rose to prominence and economic and political influence in France during the 19th century.
 Claude's descendents became leading Paris bankers, regents of the Bank of France and owner-directors of Anzin, the major coal mining company of France in the Department of Nord.
 They were mayors of towns, prefects of departments and members of municipal tribunals and chambers of commerce.
 Many were elected representatives of departments to the Chamber of Deputies in Paris and appointed to France's Chamber of Peers.
 Most notably, Casimir Pierre Perier (1777-1832), the fourth of Claude's eight sons, became Prime Minister of France in 1831-32 during the Orleanist monarchy of Louis-Philippe I. Claude's grandson, Jean Casimir-Perier (1847-1907), was elected president of the Third Republic in 1894.
 Claude Perier was sufficiently wealthy before 1789 to be known as "Perier-Milord" in Grenoble and surroundings, but it was mainly during the decade of revolution 1789-99 that he created the financial underpinning of the Perier dynasty.
 His eight sons and two daughters would share his enormous legacy of 5,800,000 francs.
Christophe Tassin (born in the early 1600s in France; died in 1660 in France), also known as Nicolas Tassin, Christophe Nicolas Tassin or Christophe Le Tassin, was a French cartographer, known for his atlases of France, Spain, Germany and Switzerland.
 Most of his work was published in Paris from 1633 to 1635.
 Among his colleagues were Melchior Tavernier (1594–1665), Sébastien Cramoisy (1584–1669) and Michael van Lochum (1601–1647).
 Little is known of his personal life.

The Honor of the Family is a 1912 American silent short drama film produced by the Rex Motion Picture Company.
 The film is a melodramatic one between two brothers and a woman named Marja.
 Gerald, admires the girl and warns his visiting brother, Claude, to leave her alone.

Joseph Christophe, the brother of Claude Christophe, was born at Verdun in 1662.
 In 1696 he painted as a "mai" for Notre-Dame the "Miracle of the Loaves and Fishes".
 He was received into the Academy in 1702, and in 1724 became painter to the Archduke Leopold, for whom he executed many portraits.
 At Versailles there is by him "The Baptism of Dauphin, son of Louis XIV".
 He died in Paris in 1748.
Claude de Longwy de Givry (1481–1561) was a French bishop and Cardinal, from an aristocratic background.
 He was the son of Philippe de Longuy, Seigneur de Givry and Jeanne de Beautremont, Dame de Mirabeau.
 He had four brothers: Jean de Longuy, Sieur de Givry and Baron de Mirabeau (who married Jeanne d'Orleans, natural sister of King Francis I), Christophe de Longuy, Antoine de Longuy, and Étienne de Longuy.
 Claude's aunt Jeanne had married Guy de la Baume, Count de Montrevel, and one of their sons was Cardinal Pierre de la Baume (1539-1544), Prince and Bishop of Geneva (1522-1543).
The Treaty of Blois (1504), also known as the First Treaty of Blois, was an agreement between Louis XII of France and the Holy Roman Emperor, Maximillian I and his son Archduke Philip, the father of the future Emperor Charles V.
 It was signed on September 22, 1504, at Blois.
 The treaty centered on an agreement of marriage between Claude of France and Charles, with Claude carrying a dowry that included Brittany, Burgundy, and Blois, and France and Spain agreeing to bestow Naples upon Charles.
 However, the terms of the treaty fell through when Claude was betrothed to her second cousin, the future Francis I of France.
 This seemed the likely outcome from the start, as Claude's mother, Anne of Brittany, was the only participant truly eager for the match (it would have kept her duchy of Brittany out of the control of the French crown).
Claude Félix Abel Niépce ( born 1763 probably at Chalon-sur-Saône, France – died 1828 Kew, England) was a French inventor and the older brother of the more celebrated Nicéphore Niépce.
 Claude traveled to England to try to find a sponsor for their internal combustion engine and died there.
 His brother's later successful development of photography has eclipsed the part played by Claude.
