Jean-Baptiste Lamy (October 11, 1814 – February 13, 1888), was a French-American Roman Catholic prelate who served as the first Archbishop of Santa Fe, New Mexico. Willa Cather's novel ''Death Comes for the Archbishop'' is based on his life and career (albeit renamed to "Jean-Marie Latour" for artistic license), as is John Horgan's nonfiction work ''Lamy of Santa Fe''. He sometimes anglicised his name to John Baptist Lamy. Provided by Wikipedia
