Geneviève de la Poterie

Geneviève Marie Ann de la Poterie (legal death on January 25, 1972) was the first cryopreserved child in the world. She lived in Montreal, Canada, with her family. She was eight years old when she legally died of a kidney disorder at Los Angeles Children’s Hospital after a two-year-illness. She was cryopreserved by the Cryonics Society of California, but she thawed out in the Chatsworth incident.
