	Louis-Jean-Marie Daubenton - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (398 words) His father, Jean Daubenton, a notary, intended him for the church, and sent him to Paris to study theology, but he was more interested in medicine. Jean's death in 1736 set his son free to choose his own career, and in 1741 he graduated in medicine at Reims, and returned to his native town planning to practise as a physician. At about this time, Buffon, also a native of Montbard, was about to bring out a grand treatise on natural history, and in 1742 he invited Daubenton to assist him by providing the anatomical descriptions for that work. CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Jean-Baptiste-Louis-George Seroux d'Agincourt (275 words) Louis XV appointed him collector of the taxes. A disciple of Count de Caylus, the archaeologist, in 1777 he visited England, Belgium, Holland, and a part of Germany; in 1778 he went to Italy, where he devoted himself particularly to the study of the Catacombs of Rome. This task, in which Louis XVI was also interested, was far from being finished at the time of his death.
