Pierre Allemand

Pierre Allemand (Lalemand) (c. 1662 – 27 May 1691) was a French ship pilot, cartographer, and fur trader in North America during the 17th century.

Allemand was born in France and sailed across the Atlantic many times. In 1681 he was recorded as living in Quebec. He went on several expeditions to Hudson Bay to trade furs and explore the region. He later wrote memoirs of his journeys and opened a business in France. He returned to North America to escort Jean-Baptiste de La Croix de Chevrières de Saint-Vallier in the region.
