Auguste Michel Étienne Regnaud de Saint-Jean d\'Angély, later 2nd Count Regnaud de Saint-Jean d\'Angély (30 July 1794, Paris – 1 February 1870 Cannes) was a Marshal of France, soldier and politician.

Biography

Auguste was the illegitimate son of Michel-Louis-Étienne, Count Regnaud de Saint-Jean d\'Angély,[1] and of his mistress Marie-Louise Chenié, who died shortly after his birth, he was recognised by his father some months later and adopted by the latter\'s wife in 1795.

Regnaud served as a lieutenant in a regiment of hussars during the campaign of Saxe in 1813. He fought at the Battle of Leipzig, after which he became a member of Emperor Napoleon\'s personal military staff.

As he had served as a personal officier d\'ordonnance to the Emperor at Waterloo,[citation needed] he was dismissed from the army by the Restoration government with the rank of lieutenant.[1] In 1825, he went to Greece, fought in the war of independence[1] and was in charge of the instruction of a cavalry corps in the new Greek army. In 1828, he took part in the Morea expedition of the French army as an interpreter. He was promoted to the rank of captain in 1829.

During the July Monarchy, Regnaud de Saint-Jean d\'Angély served as a colonel in the expedition to Belgium. He was promoted to général de brigade in 1841 and to général de division in 1849. In 1848, he was elected deputy and sat on the right.[1] In 1851, he served for a fortnight as minister of war. In 1852, he backed Louis-Napoléon Bonaparte and, as a reward, he was made a senator for life.[citation needed] Under the Second Empire, he went through the Crimean and Italian campaigns, and ultimately was created Marshal of France in 1859 for bravery at the Battle of Magenta
