Pierre Allemand
Pierre Allemand (Lalemand) (c. 1662 – 1691) was a ships pilot, explorer and fur-trader in the New World during the later 17th century.
Little is known of this French born seaman other than he had sailed to the New World on a regular basis prior to settling in New France about 1681. Allemand was a pilot on the joint Médard des Groseilliers and Pierre-Esprit Radisson expedition to Hudson Bay in 1682–83.
