there are two or three Jean de Beaugrand : the father was litographist, the son was a pupil of
François Viète and a friend of
Pierre de Fermat, he thought that
Descartes had stolen his algebra from Viète and
Thomas Harriot, therefore, Descartes was very angry against him and treated him geostaticien. We have to cut this page in two : Jean de Beaugrand (litography) and Jean de Beaugrand (mathematician). Further : it's not well proved that they were father and son. So we may have a third Jean, son of the father, lithographist, but not mathematician...
