I was looking through some Saint Vincent de Paul literature, when I came across some literature of Frederic Ozanam. To my knowledge this is the first time I came across this individual. He had a doctor of Law, Doctor of letters, he was a poet, historian, Sorbonne professor, and founder of the Society of Saint Vincent de Paul at Paris, France, in 1833.
Has anyone asked intercessory prayer from Frederic Ozanam?
 
I go to Niagara University. It is a Catholic University with a Vincetinan history.

I got excited when I saw the tytle Fredreic Ozanam because I have heard about him in class…

Also there is St. John Perboyre and St.(?) Francis Regis Clet in the Vincentian line
I have class on Monday, I will ask my professor who is a Vincentian Priest.
 
Just for your convenience I provide a link to the Cath. Encyc., 1913 (link). Here is a quote the article there provides for the beatified Ozanam:
Those who wish no religion introduced into a scientific work accuse me of a lack of independence. But I pride myself on such an accusation. . . I do not aspire to an independence, the result of which is to love and to believe nothing.
