Claude-Jean Allouez is a principal speaker at the ceremony that formally declares the Northwest Territory subject to the King of France in 1671, and in this year establishes the St. Francis Xavier Mission at the last set of rapids on the Fox River before entering the Bay of Green Bay.

The site is known as Rapides Des Pères (rapids of the fathers) which will become modern day De Pere, Wisconsin.
