Laure Junot, Duchess of Abrantès (née Martin de Permond; 6 November 1784 – 7 June 1838) was the wife of French general Jean-Andoche Junot.  The Martin de Permond family, after various vicissitudes, settled at Paris, and Bonaparte certainly frequented their house a good deal after the downfall of the Jacobin party in Thermidor 1794.
