From 1776 until his death, he drew up a land register for the Generalitat of Paris, listing the city's parishes so that taxes could be harmonised.

He was abducted from Compiègne on 22 July 1789 and brought back to Paris the same day, where he was hanged and dismembered in front of the Hôtel de Ville.
