Besserer Street was erected by the city of Ottawa and dedicated to Louis-Théodore Besserer (04 Jan 1785 - 03 Feb 1861). Veteran of the War of 1812, Besserer served first as a lieutenant in the Quebec city militia and later as a captain. Following the Upper and Lower Canada Rebellions, he moved to Bytown/Ottawa where he became owner of large tracts of land in the Sandy Hill area.
