Luc de la Corne (c. 1711 – October 1, 1784) was a Canadian-born military officer, merchant, interpreter and politician.
Luc de la Corne was born c. 1711 in Contrecœur, Quebec, then part of the French colony of Canada.
He is most famous for returning from the shipwreck of the Auguste off the coast of Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, at the age of fifty, during the dead of winter, to Quebec City - a trek of 700 miles (1,125 kilometres).
His brother, Jean-Louis, was heavily involved in the fur trade and exploration and Luc controlled the eastern end of his activities.
Another brother, François-Josué de La Corne was the commandant of Fort Kaministiquia for a time and large fur trade profits were realized.
