Honoré Grinda (30 September 1754 in Nice – 15 June 1843 in Prats-de-Mollo) first learned carpentry with his grandfather, then became an apprentice under Jean-Esprit Isnard, a Dominican from Tarascon near Avignon, himself a noted organ-builder.
His maternal uncles are the veteran Davis Cup tennis player Jean-Noël Grinda and Olivier Grinda.
