Jean-Baptiste de la Croix de Chevrières de Saint-Vallier
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jean-Baptiste de la Croix de Chevrière de St. Vallier, (14 November 1653 – 26 December 1727), was appointed to the see of Quebec as bishop in 1685 by Louis XIV. However, Blessed Pope Innocent XI was not granting any more bulls of investiture and Abbé Saint-Vallier travelled to Canada as vicar-general of Bishop Laval. He officially became Laval's successor in 1688.
