Surname
It is named after Place Martin Nadaud . Martin Nadaud was a bricklayer , freemason , republican socialist politician and author of literature on the working class . He was born in 1815 in the village of La Martinèche, part of the municipality of Soubrebost .
At the age of 16, Nadaud went to Paris and began working on the construction sites there. He was initially a laborer and then became a trained bricklayer and finally construction site manager. He remained active in the profession until 1849. In his memoirs entitled Mémoires de Léonard, ancien garçon maçon , he described the life of migrant workers during the July monarchy (1830-1848). From 1848 he was a local representative of the migrant workers from the Creuse department and ran successfully in the national elections on May 13, 1849.
With the coup of Louis Napoleon Bonaparte on December 2, 1851, Nadaud was forced into exile in England , from where he could not return until 1870. From 1876 to 1889 he was again a member of parliament for the Arrondissement of Bourganeuf . He died in La Martinèche in 1898.
