The son of Pierre Foucher (1772-1845), Victor Foucher became a high magistrate and attorney-general at Rennes. During his youth he was a friend of Vitor Hugo who lived next door. He received the grand officer of the Légion d'honneur.
His sister Adèle Foucher (1803 1868) married the celebrated writer Victor Hugo despite family opposition apparently due to political reasons.
