Michel-Ange Du Quesne de Menneville, Marquis Du Quesne (c. 1700 – 17 September 1778) was a French Governor General of New France. He was born in Toulon, France. Du Quesne served from 1752 through 1755, and is best known for his role in the French and Indian War. Fort Duquesne, established in 1755 at the confluence of the Allegheny and Monongahela Rivers at what is now Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, was named for him. It was abandoned by French forces in 1758 with the arrival of the much more powerful British Forbes Expedition, who erected Fort Pitt in its place.

  • Ange Duquesne-Menneville, markiz de Duquesne (ur. ok. 1700, zm. 17 września 1778) – francuski administrator i oficer marynarki wojennej, gubernator generalny Nowej Francji w latach 1752–1755. Urodził się ok. 1700 roku w Tulonie. Z pochodzenia Normandczyk, był wnukiem brata słynnego żeglarza Abrahama Duquesne. W 1714 wstąpił do marynarki wojennej i zrobił w niej szybką karierę, zostając w 1746 roku majorem i komendantem portu w Tulonie. W roku 1752, z protekcji swojego przyjaciela Rolland-Michel Barrina, byłego gubernatora Nowej Francji, został powołany na to stanowisko, a także otrzymał tytuł markiza. W czasie swego urzędowania rozbudował system fortów w dolinie rzeki Ohio, ugruntowując francuską obecność w Luizjanie – najważniejszą pozycją był Fort Duquesne, nazwany od jego nazwiska. Fran (pl)
