Etienne Joseph Louis Garnier-Pages (December 27, 1801 – June 23, 1841) was a French politician, born at Marseille .

Soon after his birth his father Jean Francois Garnier, a naval surgeon , died, and his mother married Simon Pages, a college professor, by whom she had a son. The boys were brought up together, and took the double name Garnier-Pages. ^[1]

Etienne found employment first in a commercial house in Marseille, and then in an insurance office in Paris. In 1825 he began to study law, and made some mark as an advocate. A keen opponent of the Restoration , he joined various democratic societies, notably the Aide-toi, le ciel t'aidera , an organization for purifying the elections. ^[1]

He took part in the revolution of July 1830; became secretary of the Aide-toi, le ciel t'aidera , whose propaganda he brought into line with his anti-monarchical ideas; and in 1831 was sent from Isere to the chamber of deputies. He was concerned in the preparation of the Compte rendu of 1832, and advocated universal suffrage . He was an eloquent speaker, and his sound knowledge of business and finance gave him a marked influence among all parties in the chamber. ^[1]

His half-brother, Louis-Antoine Garnier-Pages (1803 – October 31, 1878), fought on the barricades during the revolution of July . ^[1]
