Jean-Pierre-François de Ripert-Monclar was born in 1711 in the Château Royal de Saint-Saturnin, a family château in Saint-Saturnin-lès-Apt where his family spent their holidays.[1] [2] [3] His father was General Prosecutor of the Parlement of Aix-en-Provence.[1] He was educated at the College d'Harcourt in Paris.[4]
