History of the Old Post: |
|
"In 1731, the French government
established a military post (or Poste) along the Wabash River; a fort
was completed in 1732. Quebec-born Francois-Maire Bissot, who inherited
the title Sieur de Vincennes from his father, founded the fort, and the
French and Native Americans who settled in this area used it as a
trading and military post. Over two and one-half centuries later,
Vincennes (the oldest city in Indiana) is still affectionately known as
the Old Post."
