  • Paul-Joseph Le Moyne de Longueuil (17 septembre 1701-12 mai 1778), officier dans les troupes de la Marine et gouverneur de Trois-Rivières. Paul-Joseph Le Moyne de Longueuil est le huitième fils de Charles II Le Moyne et de Claude-Élisabeth Souard. En 1717, Le Moyne de Longueuil entreprend sa carrière militaire en France. En 1719 il est nommé lieutenant dans le régiment de Normandie. En 1726, il rentre au Canada. Il est nommé aussitôt commandant du Fort Frontenac. Il épouse à Montréal, le 19 octobre 1728, Marie-Geneviève Joybert de Soulanges, seigneuresse de Soulanges. Leur fils aîné, Joseph-Dominique-Emmanuel Le Moyne de Longueuil hérite des deux seigneuries et put les réunir. Le 21 avril 1734, il devint le premier seigneur de la Nouvelle-Longueuil. Cette colonie de l'ouest de la Montérégie fut nommée après son nom, ou bien l'endroit d'où sa famille venait: la baronnie de Longueuil. En 1739, il est nommé commandant du Fort Saint Frédéric.En 1743, il est nommé commandant du Fort Détroit. En 1744, il déjoue une conspiration britannique qui visait à soulever les Amérindiens de la région des Grands Lacs contre le Fort Détroit. Seule la tribu du chef Orontony afficha ouvertement son hostilité aux Français. Orontony s'éloigna du Fort Détroit et établit un camp fortifié qu'il fit incendier avant l'arrivée des troupes françaises. Les Français édifièrent à cet endroit le Fort Sandoské. À cette même époque, le 24 avril 1744, on lui accorde la croix de Saint-Louis. Dans les années 1750, il participa à plusieurs expéditions militaires. Le 1er mai 1757, il fut nommé gouverneur de Trois-Rivières. Il fortifia la ville. En 1759, les navires anglais passèrent devant Trois-Rivières, en évitant de l'attaquer, afin d'atteindre Montréal. Après le traité de Paris de 1763, il s'en retourna en France et devint en 1764 responsable des officiers canadiens en Touraine. Il revint au Canada régler sa succession avec sa famille qui était restée dans ce pays, puis s'en retourna définitivement en France en 1766. Il mourut à Port-Louis le 12 mai 1778. (fr)

In 1729, he was granted the seigneury of Nouvelle-Longueuil. Several of these properties were located on major fur trading routes. He became commandant of Fort Saint-Frédéric in 1739. In 1743, Longueuil became commandant at Detroit. During the War of the Austrian Succession, the neighbouring native tribes revolted against the French but Longueuil was later able to reestablish peace in the region. In 1748, he was named town major for Quebec City and, in the following year, he was named king's lieutenant. In 1757, he was named governor for Trois-Rivières. After Montreal was captured in 1760, Longueuil was sent to France. In 1764, he returned to Canada to settle his affairs and to convince his family to return to France. He sold the seigneury of L’Islet-du-Portage; the remaining properties came under the control of his son Joseph-Dominique-Emmanuel, who later served in the Legislative Council of Lower Canada. Longueuil returned to Tours in France without his family. He later died at Port-Louis at the age of 76. Longueuil was awarded the cross of Saint-Louis in 1744. His daughter Geneviève married Louis Liénard de Beaujeu de Villemonde. (en)
