Joseph Marchand (1803–1835) was a French missionary in Vietnam, and a member of the Paris Foreign Missions Society."Our Sunday Visitor's Encyclopedia of Saints" by Matthew Bunson, p.459. ISBN 1931709750. [http://books.google.com/books?id=l-pwoTFp31kC&pg=PA459&dq=Joseph+Marchand+Vietnam&sig=ACfU3U1xV2NEfylZkOVmkf-qBVr_E87wwA] ]

In 1833, he joined the Le Van Khoi revolt by Le Van Khoi, son of the late governor of southern Vietnam Le Van Duyet. Khoi and Marchand vowed to overthrow Emperor Minh Mang and replace him with My Duong, the son of Minh Mang's late elder brother Nguyen Phuc Canh, who were both Catholics. Marchand and Khoi appealed to the Catholics to join in overthrowing Minh Mang and installing a Catholic emperor. They quickly seized the Citadel of Saigon and the uprising lasted two years.

He was arrested in 1835 in Saigon and martyred, by having his flesh pulled by tongs ["John Paul II's Book of Saints" by Matthew Bunson, Margaret Bunson, p.61. ISBN 0879739347.

He was canonized by Pope John Paul II in 1988. His feast day is November 30th.
