Francis Bennon Ducrue was a missionary in Mexico, b. in Munich, Bavaria, of French parents, 10 June 1721; d. there 30 March 1779. He became a member of the Society of Jesus in 1738, and ten years later was sent to California, where he worked until the expulsion of the order in 1767. At the time, Ducrue was the superior of all the California missions. He submitted to the decree of expulsion and cooperated with the royal commission in enforcing its provisions. The Jesuits withdrew, taking with them only their clothes and a few books; these were the belongings they carried away from California after seventy years of work in its missions.
