Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: SCY-SHA
SERURIER, JEAUME MATHIEU PHILIBERT, COMTE (1742--1819) , French soldier, was born at Laon of middle-class parent-age. After being
lieutenant
  of the Laon militia, he entered the royal army, and served in the campaigns in Hanover (1759), Portugal (1762) and Corsica (1771). At the beginning of the Revolution he had attained the rank of major, and in its course he became colonel, brigadier-general and finally general of division. He fought under
Kellermann
  and B. L. J. Scherer in the army of the Alps in 1795, and under Bonaparte in Italy at Vico, Mondovi, Castiglione and Mantua. Besides his military qualities, he showed
great
  administrative talent in governing Venice (1797) and Lucca (1798). He helped Bonaparte in the coup d'etat of 18 Brumaire, and had a brilliant career under the
empire
 , when he was made senatcr,
count
 ,
marshal
 , and
governor
  of the palace of the Invalides. In 1814, however, he voted for the downfall of
Napoleon
 , and under the Restoration was made a peer of France. He was dismissed from all his posts for having joined
Napoleon
  during the Hundred Days, and died in retirement. A statue has been raised to his memory at Laon.
See L. Tuetey, Un General de l'armee d'Italie,
Serurier
  (Paris, 1899).
