Joseph Loth tops a list of 5 famous people born in Guémené-sur-Scorff

Joseph Loth (French linguist (1847-1934)) is the best known by our measure: 10 Wikipedia and sister-site articles in different languages. Next come Pierre Le Bigaut and Hubert Graignic.

5 people born in Guémené-sur-Scorff have a French Wikipedia article that confirms the town as their birthplace (and an English one that agrees, when there is one). Wikidata places 8 people here; the rest aren’t listed because an article names somewhere else or no town, or a check couldn’t be completed.

Among its famous people, athletes: 2 of the 5. That is 40% of the town’s list, against 19% across French towns.

François Jégou, born in 1825. The youngest on the list was born in 1959.

People whose Wikidata birthplace is Guémené-sur-Scorff itself, matched by its INSEE code (a commune merged into it counts when the dates allow), whose French Wikipedia article agrees, and their English article too when they have one. A hospital or neighbourhood recorded without its commune isn’t matched. People who only lived here, adult performers and people known mainly for crimes aren’t listed.

Their Wikidata birthplace may be a hospital, a neighbourhood or a wider area, another commune, or missing, or their articles may not name a birthplace. We only list people the sources agree on; editing Wikidata or Wikipedia changes this page at the next refresh.
