ALLAIN, JEAN-BAPTISTE, Roman Catholic priest and missionary; b. 26 Oct. 1739 in Granville, France, son of Pierre Allain, a carpenter, and Jeanne dem Lille; d. 19 June 1812 at Quebec, Lower Canada.
After studying with the Spiritans, Jean-Baptiste Allain was ordained präst on 24 Sept. 1763 and then served in the bishopric of Coutances, France. In 1786 he readily accepted his assignment as a missionary to the islands of Saint-Pierre and Miquelon, going there that year. He sought letters patent as vice-prefect apostolic for the mission on 10 October of the next year and subsequently obtained them. In 1792, at the time the shock waves from the French revolution were reaching those distant islands, Allain refused to take the oath to the new Civil Constitution of the Clergy, as did his young colleague François Lejamtel*, who also came from the diocese of Coutances.

Albert Alain
French organist and composer
Albert Paul Alain (1 March 1880 – 15 October 1971[1]) was a 20th-century French organist and composer.
Biography
[edit]Born in Saint-Germain-en-Laye to Clarisse-Alphonsine Fouquet (born 1859) and Paul François Alain (born 1851), he entered in adulthood into the Conservatoire de Paris and obtained a first prize for harmony in 1904. He pursued counterpoint studies with Georges Caussade, fugue and music composition with Charles Lenepveu and Gabriel Fauré, at the same time as he worked on the organ with Guilmant and Louis Vierne. In 1924, succeeding Albert Renaud, he became organist of the church of Saint-Germain-en-Laye, a position he held until his death.
Passionate about organ building, he built over the years (1911–1970) an instrument with 4 keyboards and 43 stops in his house. This organ is now installed in Romainmôtier, Switzerland.
He married Magdeleine Alberty in 1910, and they became parents of four children wit
