Captain John Baptiste Saucier: At Fort Chartres in the Illinois 1751-1763 (Classic Reprint)

John F. Snyder
4.9/5 (29639 ratings)
Description:Excerpt from Captain John Baptiste Saucier: At Fort Chartres in the Illinois 1751-1763 Every intelligent man should learn all he can of his ancestry, and transmit that knowledge to his descendents, in order that the traits and tendencies of the stock, if elevating, may be emulated; if degrading, may be corrected and improved. This view prompted the writing of the biographical sketch here presented, of Captain John Baptiste Saucier of the French Army, who designed the plans of the second Fort Chartres, in the Illinois, and superintended its construction. The romantic story of his early life has been preserved by his family, and though, in its oral transmission from generation to generation, it may have gained some embellishments and anachronisms, the most important events in his career have been retained as they actually occurred. Documentary evidences verifying many of the statements herein related, were lost nearly a century ago in the destruction by fire of his son's residence. The known facts, and family legends concerning Capt. Saucier, have been collected, in this narrative form, by one of his descendents, to perpetuate the name and history of a brave soldier and honorable, patriotic citizen.
