Louis Pasteur was the only son of Jean Joseph Pasteur, a leather tanner. Unfortunately, the fact that he was the only son has led to the erroneous claim in some online sources that he was an only child. Actually, he had three sisters (and an older brother that died as an infant prior to Louis' birth.) Later he married Marie Anne Laurent and had five children; three of whom died as young children. Father: Jean Joseph Pasteur (tanner, b. 1791, d. 1865)

Mother: Jeanne Etiennette Roqui (b. 1793, d. May-1848)

Brother: Jean Denis Pasteur (b. 1816, d. 1817)

Sister: Jeanne Antoine Pasteur (b. 1818, d. 1880)

Sister: Joséphine (b. 1825, d. 1850)

Sister: Jeanne Emilie (b. 1826, d. 1853)

Wife: Marie Anne Laurent (b. 15-Jan-1826, m. 29-May-1849, d. 23-Sep-1910, five children)

Daughter: Jeanne (b. 2-Apr-1850, d. 10-Sep-1859 typhoid fever)

Son: Jean-Baptiste (b. 8-Nov-1851, d. 17-Oct-1908)

Daughter: Cecile (b. 1-Oct-1853, d. 23-May-1866 typhoid fever)

Daughter: Marie-Louise (b. 19-Jul-1858, d. 9-Sep-1934)

Daughter: Camille (b. 8-Jul-1863, d. 11-Aug-1865) He was born in a humble family on December 27, 1822. in a small town name Dole, just outside of east France. His father was named Jean-Joseph and mother Jeanne-Roqui. He had three sisters: Virginie, Josephine and Emilie. They grew up in Arbois, while Louis's father was a tanner, which is a family tradition several generations Louis met his wife Marie Laureut, the daughter of the president of the University of Strasbourg, where he had a teaching job in May of 1949. It was love at first sight for both of them, Louis was distracted. Louis had only known Marie for two weeks when he sent a letter to her father asking for her hand in marriage. The wedding took place on May 29, 1849 in the French cathedral St. Madeleine in Strasbourg. On the day of his wedding he was missing and they found him in the laboratory and brought him to the church. After his wedding he was found back in the laboratory and his wife was there by his side. Marie became his wife, friend, collaborator, secretary and mental supporter all his life. He was a good family man and enjoyed his family immensely. They had five children, four girls and one boy. Unfortunately, only two lived through their childhood.
