Isaac de Larrey, Sieur of Grandchamp and Courménil, born, according to some biographers 7 September 1638 in Lintot, near Bolbec and according to the majority, in Montivilliers, 25 January 1639 – 17 March 1719) was a French historian.
To freely exercise his religious beliefs because he was a Protestant, Larrey went into exile in Holland after the Edict of Fontainebleau. His historical work earned him the title of historiographer of the États Généraux. Shortly after, the ruler of Brandenbourg, by offering him the title of Aulic Council, attracted him to Berlin where he died.
