  Abbot of Le Bec Hellouin, 1669 Abbot of Ambien, later Archbishop of Rouen in 1691. The great library of Colbert was bequeathed to his eldest brother Jean-Baptiste Colbert, upon whose death in 1690 the library was purchased by his brother Jacques-Nicolas who in turn bequeathed it in 1707 to Charles-Eleanor, Comte de Seignelay. Finally in 1728 it was sold in dispersion. http://www.usal.es/~bgh/1024/exlibris/colbert.htm
