Jean Joseph Rolette : ウィキペディア英語版 | Jean Joseph Rolette Jean Joseph Rolette (September 24, 1781 – December 3, 1842), often known as Joseph Rolette, was a prominent fur trader and member of the Mackinac Company who operated a trading post in Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin.〔(Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin - History )〕 ==Youth== Rolette was born in Quebec in 1781, and as a young man he trained for the priesthood at a Jesuit seminary there. However, Rolette never completed his studies, and instead he became involved in the fur trade. He worked briefly in Windsor, Ontario before finally establishing a trading post for the Mackinac Company in the remote village of Prairie du Chien sometime between 1801 and 1805. In 1811, the Mackinac Company was reorganized into the South West Company, and Rolette was a major partner in the business. It is believed that he had two partners that owned a third of the South West Company, when it was taken over by John Jacob Astor in 1815.
