Jean Chabot
Jean Chabot (October 15, 1806 – May 31, 1860) was a lawyer, judge and political figure in Canada East.
He was born in Saint-Charles near Lévis in 1806 and studied at the Petit Séminaire de Québec. He articled in law with Elzéar Bédard and was called to the bar in 1834. He was elected to the Legislative Assembly of the Province of Canada for Quebec City in an 1843 by-election and was reelected in 1844 and 1848. He was a supporter of Louis
of Lugny – whose motto was : « N’est oyseau de bon nid qui n’a plume de Lugny ». This family died out in the middle of the 16th century with Jean de Lugny and the estate therefore passed successively, through the hands of three families.
