LaSalle and Tonti Robert Cavalier, Sieur de LaSalle Henri de Tonti

LaSalle and Tonti Goals Establish French Empire in New World Monopolize the fur trade Early Problems and Setbacks Difficulty finding investors Difficulty finding a crew LaSalle not known for getting along with his men Lost the Griffon in a storm

LaSalle and Tonti Accomplishments Built Ft. Crevecoeur on the Illinois River near Peoria From 1681 to 1682 explored the Mississippi River valley to the Gulf of Mexico Claimed all rivers that flowed into it and claimed all the land surrounding the rivers for France and named it Louisiana Constructed Fort St. Louis near present day Starved Rock State Park

LaSalle’s Death Sent to Gulf of Mexico to compete with Spanish for power Given 4 ships and made Governor of all land between Lake Michigan and Gulf of Mexico One ship was captured by Spanish Other ships went past mouth of Mississippi into what is now Texas Built a fort but suffered a crop failure Last ship ran aground trying to reach Mississippi Took the 28 remaining healthy men and set out for Fort St. Louis Eventually killed by his own men

French life in Illinois Mainly settled in southern Illinois because of Indian attacks in the north Southern Illinois was a key link between Canada and Gulf of Mexico Philippe Renault brought slavery to Illinois to work in mines near Fort Chartres Coming conflict between English and French for shared land claims

French and Indian War King George II of England gave a land grant to the Ohio Company for the Ohio River Valley Why might this cause problems? LaSalle had claimed all of the rivers that flowed into the Mississippi for France English had claimed the entire continent previously under John Cabot Conflict triggered French and Indian War (7 Years War in Europe) between England and France and each side’s Indian allies British eventually increase manpower and supplies while the French never received support from their government back in Europe Treaty of Paris ended the war in 1763 giving the British all land from the Mississippi River to the Atlantic Ocean
