Fort Orleans
On June 16, William Clark searched for the remains of an old French fort noted on a map that Lewis and Clark carried with them on the expedition. This map was made in 1787 by a Scotsman working for the Spanish named James Mackay. This map showed the location of a "vieux {old} fort" nearly opposite the abandoned site of the "ancient villages" of the Little Osage and Missouri Indian tribes, which were also noted on Mackay's map. The old fort Mackay referred to was Fort Orleans, established in 1723 by Etienne de Bourgmont in an effort to establish trade with the Missouri Indians. The site was in present day Carroll County above the mouth of the Grand River, but to this day the exact location of the fort has never been determined with certainty.
