Dysentary killed Marquette, Jolliet vanished while leading an expedition to Anticosti Island in the Gulf of Saint Lawrence, in Quebec, Canada, and it is presumed he died either while crossing the gulf or after landing on the island, although exactly how he died is unknown; his body was never found.
He was a french explorer who found Michigan's first settlement. I hope this helps!
The Canadian governor (Frontenac)
In 1673, Joliet was a well known French-Canadian explorer. Governor General Comte de Frontenac of New France believed the Mississippi might provide an easy route to the Far East for traders. He sent Joliet to find the river and trace its course. Marquette knew some Indian languages, so he was chosen to go with Joliet.
Louis Joliet and Father Jacques Marquette (and five others) found the Mississippi River in 1673.
louis joliet had only one kid named JEAN BAPTISTE JOLIET
Joliet and Marquette explored for the King of France.
Marquette and Joliet followed the Mississippi river south to the Arkansas river. Marquette and Joliet made their exploration trip in 1673.
Marquette and Joliet were from France I think. They then moved to Canada and lived in Quebec... Marquette or Joliet (forgot which one) was a priest or something like that. Joliet or Marquette was an explorer. They meet each other and then became traders. They traded glass beads for fur from the Indians. That is pretty much all I know about them.
Marquette explored for a governer and he went with Louis Joliet.
they were famous explorers
Marquette and Joliet were sent on their journey by the French government, specifically by the governor of New France, which was the French colony in North America. They were tasked with exploring the Mississippi River to find a potential river route to the Pacific Ocean.
Joliet thought Marquette lacked tact and cleanliness. In the canoe, he often sat as far away from Marquette, as possible. He had hopes that one day a mall would be named after him, because Joiet felt he had way more fashion sense than Marquette. Low and behold, there is a Louis Joliet Mall in Joliet, Illinois, today!!
