Jean-Baptiste Honoré Raymond Capefigue (1801 – December 1872) was a French historian and biographer. He was born in Marseille, France. At the age of twenty he went to Paris to study law, but soon switched to journalism. He became editor of the Quotidienne, and was afterwards connected, either as editor or leading contributor, with the Temps, the Messager des Chambres, the Revolution de 1848 and other papers. Capefigue was hasty, and although he had access to an exceptionally large number of sources of information, including the state papers, his accuracy and judgment are doubtful.
