The late father of Yves Armistead and Amandine Armistead, late husband of Amalie Armistead.
To have a sensitive boy with a love of theatre, fabrics and music for a son was Maximilien Armistead’s worst nightmare. The ruthless banker ruled his business, household and family with an iron fist, believing in victory at all costs and letting nothing stand in his way. The scourge of Rouen and Paris was killed in 1792 when a business partner’s gun accidentally discharged; few mourned his passing, least of all his family.
