Marquette and Joliet followed the Mississippi river south to the Arkansas river. Marquette and Joliet made their exploration trip in 1673.
they found the Mississippi river for there country
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
Jacques Marquette and Louis Joliet hoped to find a water route to the Pacific Ocean while exploring the Mississippi River in the 17th century. They were searching for a quicker trade route to Asia.
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!!
A route to Asia... :)
1673
In 1673 Marquette and Joliet's expedition began and Illinois was discovered.
