L%C3%A9on Lemartin

Thodore Clovis Edmond Lemartin, known as Lon Lemartin was a pioneer aviator who set a world record onFebruary 1911 at Pau, France when he carried seven passengers in a Blriot XIII Aerobus. He then took eight, eleven and thirteen passengers aloft the following month.

Lemartin was born in the commune of Dunes in the Department of TarnetGaronne in south west France. From the moment of his birth he was known as Lon, but his forenames honoured both his father and both of his grandfathers. When he graduated in 1902 and required authorisations to work he discovered a mistake on his birth certificate, that his family name of Le Martin had been written Lemartin, but he decided that it was easier to adopt the new spelling.
