An LB Graduate's Talk to Bay Area Leadership Hamilton-Burlington September 20, 2001 Greetings from the south end of the Golden Horseshoe. On behalf of the over 600 members of Leadership Buffalo and its terrific staff headed by Susy Russ, congratulations to all of you for embarking on this exciting new enterprise, Bay Area Leadership, here in LaSalle Park. I am here to convey our best wishes for your great success. If you succeed as LB has, you will create a common wealth from which your community and each one of you will benefit. Please allow me to tell you a little bit about LB, how it has impacted our community, and how it has impacted me as a member of the class of 1991 and ever since. Established by the Greater Buffalo Chamber of Commerce and the Junior League in 1987, LB was important for being a business-initiated, community leadership program, because then, as is too often the case now, elected officials were thought to be the community's primary and only leaders. But it was at a time when leadership was needed everywhere. This program's mission? To unite local leaders from diverse backgrounds and perspectives in order to increase their knowledge and understanding of community issues, to broaden their vision, and to enhance their ability to lead.

The first Europeans to come to LaSalle County, Illinois, were the French. Arriving in the late 1600’s, the French called the region the Illinois Country, a title reflecting the influence of the dominant local Native people, the Illinois. Among these early arrivals were priests, soldiers, traders, explorers and carpenters, each group with a different goal-oriented duty to perform. The priest saw this new country as an untapped mission field, ripe with potential converts. Explorers saw it as a new empire to claim for the glory of the king. Traders saw riches to be made in the fur trade, and the soldier was the visible symbol of French imperial might. The Illinois technological advantage over an enemy who may outnumber his people. To the east and north the British, French, and Dutch traded with the native people; the revolutionary transition these European trade items made to the old way of life was immense. It was therefore in the best interests of the local Illinois to be on good terms with the French, who held the keys to the stores of progress. The Jesuits In the late 1600’s, the Church of Rome was a powerful institution in France. Although French Protestants known as the Huguenots offered a religious alternative, France was essentially a one-religion country. Within the Roman Catholic Church itself there were competing societies. Some of these societies included the Recollects, the Sulpicians, and the most influential of all, the Jesuits.

EXPANDING NEW FRANCE: The Lavergnes Move South to New Orleans and West to Opelousas From Lives of Quiet Desperation by Gary M. Lavergne Shortly after the French founded Quebec in 1608, their explorers and fur traders pushed westward along the Great Lakes area. The chief activity of the French was the fur trade conducted by the coureurs de bois or the "runners of the woods." The Governor of New France, Louis de Buade Frontenac (1620-1698), showed a preference for fur trading activities over the establishment of farming communities. The expansion of New France was thus merely an attempt to expand the scope of the lucrative fur trade and to extend French dominance in the New World. It was Pierre Esprit Radisson who first heard of a great river which ran southward toward the Gulf of Mexico; within the next few years the French had explored the upper portions of that "great river." As a resident of Quebec City, Louis Lavergne would most likely have been familiar with a fellow resident named Rene Robert Cavelier, Sieur de La Salle. La Salle arrived in New France in 1667, right about the same time as Louis Lavergne. In 1673 Governor Frontenac sent La Salle to France to report to French Finance Minister Colbert on the status of New France. (See "Quebec City: The Emergence of Louis Lavergne"). He returned to Canada two years later (1675) with a grant of nobility only to return to France (1677) with a request of the King for ships and settlers for the lower Mississippi River Valley. In order to make his case before the King, La Salle told of rich mines and the prospect of mass conversions of Indians to Christianityboth shear fabrications. By 14 July 1678, La Salle left France and reached Quebec two months later.

The History of Opelousas THE HISTORY OF OPELOUSAS Written and researched by John N. Harper used with permission Known as the Gateway to Acadiana, Opelousas traces its history over two hundred years. The City of Opelousas uses 1720 as the official founding date; however, Opelousas can trace its roots back over 10,000 years. Archaeologists and historians believe that Native Americans may have lived here nearly 12,500 years ago in small nomadic groups. The Opelousa Indians, a small band of the historic Attakapa Tribe, lived in the area known as Opelousas for hundreds of years. The present-day city takes its name from the Opelousas, which, although given many meanings, translates to black leg. Local legend says that the tribe painted their legs a dark color, hence the name. Recently, research has discovered that the name may be an interpretation for a loose phrase meaning “this place is very hot.” France established the Louisiana Colony in 1699. As early as 1706, the Opelousas Country was known to Frenchman, although some historians believe that French explorer Rene’ Robert Cavelier, sieur de LaSalle, during one of his four land excursions in the late 1600s, may have been among the friendly Opelousa Indians in 1687. According to the Council of Commerce Records of 1710, Opelousas could claim a semi-white presence frequently visiting the area since 1708. A map drawn by a priest named LeMaire in 1716 and “Delisle’s Care de la Louisiane” of 1718 shows the name Loupelousas on it. The latter drawing places the tribe along Bayou Nezpique, in present-day western St. Landry Parish. During the 17th and 18th centuries, the region between the Mississippi and Sabine rivers was called Opelousas.

The historic Council Oak had begun to collapse even in this 1968 photo. Tribune File Photo Piece of Council Oak chosen for Indiana time capsule By HEATHER COCKS Tribune Staff Writer As part of its move to a larger facility in Indianapolis, the Indiana Historical Society will stash a time capsule underneath a staircase in its new building. The Council Oak, damaged in windstorms in the 1930s and in 1977, collapsed in a matter of days in August 1991, apparently weakened by high winds several weeks before. The tree stood well over 400 years in the present-day Highland Cemetery, overlooking the Pin Hook of the St. Joseph River, on the portage between the St. Joseph and the Kankakee rivers. Each county gets an identical space in the time capsulea cubbyhole 12 inches wide, 12 inches deep and 3 inches high. The County Historians Program first began in the 1940s but fell by the wayside until state historical groups reinvigorated it in 1982. To sponsor the program, the Indiana Historical Society joined forces with the state-run Indiana Historical Bureau. County historians serve three-year terms and are nominated by local historical organizations. After considering those nominations, program director John Harris makes the selection.

Glossary of Exploration Terms Exploring North America : La Salle traveled from France to Quebec, New France (Canada), in late 1667. He was determined to find a water passage to the east through North America. Leaving Montreal in July, 1669, La Salle crossed Lake Ontario, Lake Erie, and other places which are not documented (he did not return to Montreal until late 1670, and may have traveled down the Ohio or Mississippi River). La Salle made many exploring trips during the years 1671 to 1673. La Salle returned to France in 1677, getting permission form the King to explore the area between Florida, Mexico and New France (Canada). He returned to Canada in 1678 with his friend, Henri de Tonty, and others. In Canada, they constructed a fort on the Niagara River (between Ontario and New York) and built a ship called the Griffon, which they used to explore the Great Lakes. They sailed on August 7, 1679, traveling across Lake Erie and Lake Huron. They traveled across land to Lake Michigan, which they paddled across in canoes. Returning, they discovered that the Griffon was lost, the fort at Niagara had burned down, and many men had deserted their posts, robbing supply stores. Traveling the Length of the Mississippi River: On a 1681 expedition, La Salle and about 40 men again headed to the Mississippi River. They reached the Mississippi River on February 6, 1682, then headed down it in canoes. They built Fort Prud'homme at what is now Memphis

ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND HISTORICAL BIBLIOGRAPHY OF THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY Compiled by Philip Phillips and Jeffrey P. Brain Updated and revised by Tristram R. Kidder The original Lower Mississippi Survey (LMS) bibliography was compiled by Jeffrey P. Brain and Philip Phillips (Brain and Phillips 1979) for the Conference on Lower Mississippi Valley archaeology, held at Avery Island, Louisiana, in 1978. In its original format the bibliography was comprised of two parts: individual 3 x 5 file cards arranged alphabetically, and an author index, classified in general topical headings, and subdivided regionally. As noted in the Preface to the first bibliography, The emphasis... is upon archaeological and historical source material for the Lower Mississippi Valley, broadly considered substantively and geographically. Pertinent references to the natural environment have been included, with special attention to paleoecology, historical geology, and descriptive geography. Generally omitted are studies of modern climate, flora/fauna, soil surveys, and technical studies, such as MRC (flood control, levee construction) and oil company (prospecting, substructural geology) reports. Also not included are radio-carbon (sic) dates... general theoretical studies, or obituaries, although the bibliographies of the latter have been incorporated. Other sources that contributed to this compilation were the various bibliographies of the LMS, the Tozzer Library [Harvard University] author and subject catalogue files, the bibliographies of major archaeological reports, and the contributions of individual participants in the conference. Existing state archaeological bibliographies (e.g., Davis and Scholtz, Thorne and Lewis, Newman and Simmons) were also drawn upon

Pierre LeMoyne Sieur d'Iberville and the Establishment of Biloxi This website contains the history of d'Iberville's discovery of the area now known as Biloxi, Mississippi and the surrounding Gulf Coast, including the history of the quest to discover the entrance to the mouth of the Mississippi River. The quest for domains in the New World brought many European adventurers and explorers to this country. There was a need to locate and fortify key areas so that these vast domains could be controlled. In the 17th century, one of the greatest of these aims was the control of the Mississippi River and thus the control of the trade (primarily fur) that could come down from Canada and the Great Lakes. Therefore, finding the entrance to the mouth of the Mississippi River became paramount. The Spanish explorer Alvarez de Pineda had mentioned the tidal flows of the Mississippi River into the Gulf in 1519. The Spanish had encountered the river unaware that it was the "Mighty Mississippi" and were thwarted from penetrating it due to a "palisade" of rocks and mud at it's mouth. The river was therefore named Rio de la Palizada . However, the first documentation of a European to actually see the Mississippi River by penetration from the south was Hernando de Soto, who had at one time served under Francisco Pizarro - the conqueror of the Incas. Landing in Florida in May of 1539, de Soto and his men moved overland through the Deep South in search of the "Fountain of Youth" and any gold or wealth they could steal from indigents. Plundering as they went and additionally spreading European diseases (e.g. smallpox) that decimated the Indians tribes here in the South, De Soto and his men emerged onto the Mississippi River near present-day Memphis in 1541. However, De Soto died somewhere there in 1542 without finding the gold he had so diligently, and according to some of his men, insanely sought. No colonies, forts or settlements resulted from these endeavors.
