Jean Talon (1626-1694), a French military man, served as commissioner of war in Flanders, intendent of the army of Turenne (1653), commissioner of Quesnoy (1654), and intendent of Hainaut (1655). He left this post ten years later to become intendant of New France from 1665-1668 and 1670-1672. Following the instructions of Colbert and his own considerable understanding of the colony’s needs, he undertook many measures to diversify the economy, reorganize the justice system, facilitate communications, and increase population density. He succeeded in settling 2000 immigrants in his territory. Unfortunately, his work in several areas did not survive his return to France.
