Other traders dwelt on this bay in 1660-1663 and were visited in the spring of 1661 by Father <a href="/wiki/Ren%C3%A9_Menard" class="mw-redirect" title="René Menard">René Menard</a>, the first <a href="/wiki/Society_of_Jesus" class="mw-redirect" title="Society of Jesus">Jesuit</a> <a href="/wiki/Missionary" title="Missionary">missionary</a> to the <a href="/wiki/Old_Northwest" class="mw-redirect" title="Old Northwest">Northwest</a>. In 1665 Father <a href="/wiki/Claude_Allouez" class="mw-redirect" title="Claude Allouez">Claude Allouez</a> built a mission house near the southwest end of the bay. His successor, Father <a href="/wiki/Jacques_Marquette" title="Jacques Marquette">Jacques Marquette</a>, came in 1669 and remained for two years. In 1693 Pierre LeSueur built a fort on the largest island (now known as <a href="/wiki/Madeline_Island" title="Madeline Island">Madeline Island</a>), located at the mouth of the bay. It was abandoned by the French before the close of the century. </p><p>In 1718 a French fort was built on the island where Louis Denis de la Ronde had a post for fur trading and exploration for copper mines. Called <a href="/wiki/La_Pointe,_Wisconsin" title="La Pointe, Wisconsin">La Pointe</a>, the fort had a French garrison until 1759, during the <a href="/wiki/Seven_Years%27_War" title="Seven Years' War">Seven Years' War</a> (also known as the <a href="/wiki/French_and_Indian_War" title="French and Indian War">French and Indian War</a> in North America).

They married daughters of <a href="/wiki/Michel_Cadotte" title="Michel Cadotte">Michel Cadotte</a>, a fur trader and a son of Jean Baptiste. He bequeathed his interests to the Warren brothers; they became the leading American fur traders of the region. Truman Warren died early; Lyman maintained his home at La Pointe until his death in 1847. </p><p>During the early 19th century, a village developed around the post, made up of retired <a href="/wiki/Coureur_des_bois#Voyageurs" title="Coureur des bois">voyageurs</a> and <a href="/wiki/Fur_traders" class="mw-redirect" title="Fur traders">fur traders</a>. <a href="/wiki/John_Jacob_Astor" title="John Jacob Astor">John Jacob Astor</a>'s <a href="/wiki/American_Fur_Company" title="American Fur Company">American Fur Company</a> had a post here for many years.
