Biography
Louis de Calvimont was the son of Jean-Baptiste Augustin Armand de Calvimont (1762–1812), page to the King, captain in the Royal Cavalry Regiment, and his wife Jeanne Sophie de La Salle (c. 1775–1842). A noted Bordelais winegrower and cousin of the writer Viscount Jean-Baptiste-Albert de Calvimont (1804–1858), he was known for having dissipated his wealth and for the support he gave to the Carlists who went to the Bordeaux region from Spain.
In 1828 Jean-Baptiste Lynch, his maternal cousin, obtained permission to pass his name and peerage on to Calvimont. The July Revolution, however, deprived him of the right to enter the Chamber of Peers.
His family owned the Château de Cérons.
