Son of the physician Jean-Eugène Dezeimeris who was librarian of the Faculty of Medicine in Paris, Reinhold Dezeimeris had a political career; he was president of the Conseil Général de la Gironde until 1899, but it is above all his activities as a scholar that he is remembered for. He was a founding member of the Société des Bibliophiles de Guyenne, of the Société archéologique de Bordeaux, and a corresponding member of the Institut. He devoted numerous studies to authors from his beloved city and had a fine library which was dispersed at two sales in 1914 and 1920.
