Marquette, O Marquette!

Father Marquette National Memorial
The Father Marquette National Memorial is located in Straits State Park, just west of I-75, off U.S. 2. Father Jacques Marquette, a French Jesuit missionary, established Michigan's earliest European settlements at Sault Ste. Marie and St. Ignace in 1668 and 1671. He lived among the Great Lakes Indians from 1666 to his death in 1675.
