Louis Pierre d'Hozier

Louis Pierre d'Hozier (20 November 1685 – 25 September 1767) was a French nobleman and genealogist and the fourth holder of the post of Script error: No such module "Lang".. He was born and died in Paris.Template:Sfn

The grandson of Pierre d'Hozier and nephew of Charles René d'Hozier, he collaborated with his youngest son Antoine Marie d'Hozier to produce the 10-volume l'Armorial de France (1738-1768), covering most of the French noble families of the time. He succeeded his uncle Charles in the post of Script error: No such module "Lang"..Template:Sfn

He published the Armorial général, ou registre de la noblesse de France (10 vols, 1738–1768), which must not be confounded with the publication written by his uncle, inasmuch as it related solely to noble families and was not an official collection.Template:Sfn

Complete copies of this work, which should contain six Script error: No such module "Lang"., are comparatively rare. A seventh Script error: No such module "Lang"., forming vol. xi, prepared by Ambroise-Louis-Marie, nephew of Louis Pierre, was published in 1847 by comte Charles d'Hozier. Louis Pierre died on 25 September 1767.Template:Sfn

His eldest son, Antoine Marie d'Hozier de Sérigny (1721 – c. 1810), was his father's collaborator and continuator; and his fourth son, Jean-François Louis, wrote an account of the Knights of St Michael in the province of Poitou, which was published in 1896 by the vicomte P de Chabot.Template:Sfn
