Pieter Daniël Eugenius MacPherson

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Pieter Daniël Eugenius MacPherson (Armentières (France), 4 April 1792 - Maastricht, 19 January 1846) was a Dutch member of the civil service, politician and King's commissioner.[1][2]

MacPherson was a civil servant who rose in rank from 1816. In 1845 he was created King's Commissioner (titled 'governor') of the southern Dutch province of Limburg,[1] however he became ill after having served only one month in office.

MacPherson married Rose Marie Jeanne van Meeuwen, a member of the Catholic noble family Van Meeuwen.

The couple's Neoclassical grave monuments, found in the Tongerseweg Cemetery in Maastricht, are National Heritage Monuments (rijksmonumenten).[1]
