Jean-Baptiste d'Estrehan de Beaupré (surname often written as Destrehan; died 26 February 1765, New Orleans, Louisiana)[1] was a high-ranking French official in colonial Louisiana and the founder of the Destrehan family there.
A native of France, he was appointed Royal Treasurer of Louisiana early in the colony's history.
They had six children together,[2] the most notable of whom was Jean Noel Destréhan, after whom the town of Destrehan was named.
Another son, Jean Baptiste Honoré d'Estrehan, was the first husband of Marie Felicité de St. Maxent.
D'Estrehan's daughter, Marie Marguerite, married Étienne de Boré, who was appointed as the first mayor of New Orleans after the United States made the Louisiana Purchase.
