Georges-Jacques Danton's father-in-law

Husband to Angélique, father to Gabrielle and father-in-law to Georges-Jacques Danton, François-Jérôme Charpentier owns the Café du Parnasse, known to its patrons as the Café de L’École because it overlooks the Quai de L’École. The Café de L’École is near to the law courts, making it the chosen haunt of young lawyers.
