Biographie
-
An 'Ingénieur du Roi' from at least 1708 (1), Delure was a juré of the Founders' Corporation in 1721-3. He was working from at least 1695 and in 1707 published terrestrial globe gores. He worked with Pigeon on the construction of his Copernican sphere in 1706 (2). Numerous mathematical instruments by him are known, as is a map of the bay of Gibralter engraved by André Cocquart (3). If the Marie Oudry 'veuve du sieur Delure, Mathématicien' who was buried 2 December 1751 in St Nicolas des Champs was his wife, then J. B. Oudry (qv), would have been his nephew by marriage (4).
