(June 1, 1637 – May 18, 1675), sometimes known as Père Marquette or James Marquette, was a French Jesuit missionary who founded Michigan's first European settlement, Sault Ste. Marie, and later founded St. Ignace, in which state?
Context: Louis Jolliet (September 21, 1645last seen May 1700) was a French Canadian explorer known for his discoveries in North America.  Jolliet and Jesuit Father Jacques Marquette, a Catholic priest and missionary, were the first non-Natives to explore and map the Mississippi River in 1673. The Sault Ste. Marie International Bridge spans the St. Marys River between the United States and Canada connecting the twin cities of Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan and Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario.  It serves as the northern terminus of Interstate 75 (I-75).  The International Bridge began construction in 1960 and officially opened to traffic on October 31, 1962.  Daily operation is carried on by the International Bridge Administration (IBA) under the supervision of the Sault Ste. Marie Bridge Authority (SSMBA).  The SSMBA replaced the previous Joint International Bridge Authority (JIBA) in 2009, which in turn had succeeded the International Bridge Authority (IBA, created in 1935) in 2000. Pere Marquette or Jacques Marquette was a French Jesuit missionary and namesake of Marquette University. St. Francois County is a county located in the Lead Belt region in the U.S. state of Missouri.  As of the 2010 census, the population was 65,359.  The largest city and county seat is Farmington.  The county was officially organized on December 19, 1821.  It was named after the St. Francis River.  The origin of the river's name is unclear.  It might refer to St. Francis of Assisi.  Another possibility is that Jacques Marquette, a Jesuit who explored the region in 1673, named the river for the Jesuit missionary Francis Xavier.  Marquette had spent some time at the mission of St. Francois Xavier before his voyage and, as a Jesuit, was unlikely to have given the river a name honoring the Franciscans. The St. Ignace Mission is located in a municipal park known as Marquette Mission Park.  It was the site of a mission established by Père Jacques Marquette, and the site of his grave in 1677.  A second mission was established at a different site in 1837, and the chapel was moved here in 1954.  The second mission chapel is the oldest Catholic church in Michigan and Wisconsin.  The St. Ignace Mission was designated a Michigan State Historic Site in 1956, and was declared a U.S. National Historic Landmarks in 1960, one of the earliest sites recognized.  The mission chapel serves as the Museum of Ojibwa Culture. Cloverland Electric Cooperative is an electric cooperative in Michigan, United States.  It serves five counties on the eastern end of Michigan's Upper Peninsula (Chippewa, Mackinac, Schoolcraft, Delta and Luce), as well as the cities of Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan and St. Ignace.  Cloverland Electric Cooperative is based in Dafter, just south of Sault Ste, Marie. The Duluth, South Shore and Atlantic Railway (DSS&A) (reporting mark DSA) was an American railroad serving the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and the Lake Superior shoreline of Wisconsin.  It provided service from Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan, and St. Ignace, Michigan, westward through Marquette, Michigan to Superior, Wisconsin, and Duluth, Minnesota.  A branchline stretched northward from Nestoria, Michigan up to the Keweenaw Peninsula and terminating at Houghton, Michigan, with two branches extending further to Calumet, Michigan and Lake Linden, Michigan. Marquette Park may refer to one of several places that are named in honor of Jacques Marquette, a French Jesuit missionary. Father Jacques Marquette S.J. (June 1, 1637 – May 18, 1675), sometimes known as Père Marquette or James Marquette, was a French Jesuit missionary who founded Michigan's first European settlement, Sault Ste. Marie, and later founded St. Ignace, Michigan.  In 1673 Father Marquette and Louis Jolliet were the first Europeans to explore and map the northern portion of the Mississippi River. Father Marquette National Memorial pays tribute to the life and work of Jacques Marquette, French priest and explorer.  The memorial is located in Straits State Park near St. Ignace in the modern-day U.S. state of Michigan, where he founded a Jesuit mission in 1671 and was buried in 1678.  The associated Father Marquette Museum building was destroyed in a fire on March 9, 2000.
