Vikings are thought to have traveled thru the St. Lawrence and into the Great Lakes around 1000 AD, but made no permanent settlements. The next Europeans to arrive were the French under Louis Jolliet and Pierre Marquette in 1673. The pair traveled downriver but no settlements were made on the Mississippi proper.
