Jean-François Cail (8 February 1804 – 22 May 1871)[1] was a French entrepreneur and industrialist who was a key figure in French industrialization.

Life

Childhood

Jean-François Cail was born the third of eight children on 8 February 1804. He was the son of Charles Cail (1777–1854), a wheelwright, and his wife, Marie Pinpin (1777–1839). The family had a small cottage in Chef-Boutonne, in Deux-Sèvres (16).

Partnership with Charles Derosne

Jean-François Cail left home in 1816 to start an apprenticeship as a boilermaker. He ended up in the company of Charles Derosne, a manufacturing chemist involved in creating distillation equipment. Getting on well they founded the company Derosne & Cail in 1832. The company specialised in making alcohol and confectionery from sugar beet, and building machines to sell for others to follow the process. This included one of the world's first machines to make children's confectionery. In 1848 Cail obtained licence to copy the patents of Thomas Russell Crampton and began manufacturing Crampton locomotives as well. He was one of the first railway constructors in France.

Derosne died in 1848 and the company got into great trouble because of the 1848 revolution.

Société J. F. Cail & Cie

Main article: Société J. F. Cail & Cie

On 6 June 1850 Cail founded the new company Société J. F. Cail & Cie. It continued to be successful in locomotives and expanded to become an international company, branching especially into engineered structures.

Private life

Having become a wealthy man, Mr. Cail built a luxurious townhouse in Paris that is used today by the city government as town hall of the 8th arrondissement.

He is buried in an elaborate and huge tomb in Pere Lachaise cemetery in Paris. The tomb lies towards the north-east at the junction of two paths.
