ROUSSEAU, DOMINIQUE, silversmith, fur trader, businessman, and militia officer; b. 9 Nov. 1755 at Quebec, son of Louis-Alexandre, Rousseau, dit Beausoleil, a merchant, and his second wife, Marie-Joseph Chabot; d. 27 Feb. 1825 following a stroke, in Montreal.

Although Dominique Rousseau had a complex and diversified life, documentary sources make it possible to sketch the stages of his career. From 1776 to 1790 he was mainly called silversmith. The subsequent importance of his commercial activities is reflected in the designations négociant (1784-1815), bourgeois (1799-1806), marchand (1806-15), marchand voyageur (1816-21), and commerçant (1821-25). But he was equally an agricultural producer, potash manufacturer, militia captain (1802), and then major (1812), as well as a landowner with large holdings. He was called écuyer (esquire) from 1801.

Rousseau started out at Quebec, where he learned the silversmith's craft, probably in a group around Joseph Schindler* in which he met his friend Louis Huguet, dit Latour. He went to Montreal, as did Huguet, and may have worked there for fur merchant François Cazeau*; Cazeau was present at his marriage with Charlotte Foureur on 30 Jan. 1776. Rousseau lived at Grondines (Saint-Charles-des-Grondines), where his family made its home by 1779, but returned to Montreal in June 1780, several months after his father's death. The next year he moved into a house on Rue Saint-Jacques bought from his father-in-law Louis Foureur*, dit Champagne. His business prospered rapidly. In 1781 he rented a pew in the church of Notre-Dame and lent 1,175 livres, without interest, "in gold of Spanish currency," to his brother-in-law silversmith Pierre Foureur, dit Champagne, who may have apprenticed with Rousseau. But in 1783 he stopped practising his craft when he rented his house to silversmith Charles Duval. The rent was to be paid in articles of trade silver which Rousseau was to market.

In the spring of 1784 Rousseau was in business as a merchant at Saint-Philippe-de-Laprairie. He bought at least six properties there, and lived in an apartment that he kept for himself in one of the houses he leased out. He worked his lands through several farmers. He was so successful that in 1789 he sold three of his farms for £900, more than triple what he had paid for them. He had moved back to Montreal for a year in May 1787. From 1788 to 1791 he lived at Longueuil, where he called himself a merchant and silversmith. In 1792 he took up permanent residence on Rue Notre-Dame, across from the Recollets, in a house once owned by the Foureur, dit Champagne, family that his mother-in-law had made over to him the previous year. He immediately became keeper of the keys for the fire pumps in his ward.

From 1793 to 1795 Rousseau worked on Rue Saint-François-Xavier. To turn out in short order 12,000 pairs of drop ear-rings commissioned by François Bouthillier, he had the help of several silversmiths. In 1796 Rousseau again became a merchant, moved into a house on Rue Saint-Paul, and sublet one of the two stores in it. Rousseau himself carried a variety of retail merchandise. In addition he went into partnership with his brother François and Jean-Baptiste-Toussaint Pothier* in March 1797 to set up a potashery at Deschambault. The summer of 1798 marked a turning-point in Rousseau's career. He sold "merchandise, silver articles, and clothing" worth 16,223 livres 15 sols to Pierre-Gabriel Cotté, which he contracted to deliver at Michilimackinac (Mackinac Island, Mich.) and consign to Pothier. Rousseau became a bourgeois and hired voyageurs. In the period from 1799 to 1809 Rousseau employed up to about 60 engagés, including some 50 winterers, and fitted out as many as seven canoes a year. Among the engagés the trades of baker, tailor, cooper, miller, and carpenter were represented. Rousseau had two clerks at Michilimackinac from 1802 to 1805, and three from 1805 till 1808, and he himself went there every summer. His winterers generally located in the south, in the regions then called the Illinois country, the Upper and Lower Mississippi, the Grand River (Mich.), and Detroit. But in 1802 in association with Joseph Bailly he tried to establish himself at Grand Portage (near Grand Portage, Minn.). The 10-man crew under clerk Paul Hervieux included a guide, François Rastoulle, six voyageurs, a baker, and a winterer. But the powerful North West Company, jealous of territory it considered its exclusive property, attacked the expedition.

The dispute, which went on for some time, started in July 1802. The NWC sought to prevent the expedition from putting up its tents and trading on sites cleared by the company. Hervieux produced the licence issued to his bourgeois by the American government and disputed the NWC's claims to a monopoly on trade. In a fit of anger and with a torrent of insults, McGillivray slashed one of the tents and mocked the expedition by setting fire to another. In October Rousseau and Bailly sued McGillivray in the Court of King's Bench. The court ordered McGillivray to pay damages of £500 plus court costs. Lord Selkirk [Douglas*] remarked that the sum "could not possibly indemnify [Rousseau] for the profit which he had reason to expect, and was a mere trifle to the North-West Company. It was a great moral victory, however, since by the case the NWC had lost legal recognition of its monopoly rights.

In 1806 Rousseau tried a new tactic against the NWC. In addition to the 47 winterers established south of Michilimackinac, he sent an expedition north-westwards led by one of his voyageurs. However, the NWC got wind of the venture and detailed a few men to "keep an eye" on them. But the NWC party blocked their passage by cutting down trees, forcing them to abandon his goods on the spot. This time the dispute would be settled out of court. On 10 Dec. 1806 an agreement was reached between Rousseau and the agents of the Michilimackinac Company. Rousseau promised to respect the limits of trading areas agreed to by that company and the NWC, not to engage in business dealings with the Indians but only with whites, and not to have any other separate interests. In return Rousseau was granted a retail store at Michilimackinac, enjoying a monopoly except for one other store which belonged to the Michilimackinac Company.

On 12 Jan. 1807 Rousseau signed another agreement to "put an amicable end to all contentious issues" arising from the confrontation in 1806. Rousseau was to receive £600, and in return the NWC would be allowed to recover the merchandise left behind "at the place called Portage de l'Orignal." In the spring Rousseau fitted out only one very small expedition. On 6 July at Michilimackinac he signed a private agreement terminating his contract with the Michilimackinac Company. But there is every reason to believe that he continued none the less to work for it until it was taken over in 1811 by John Jacob Astor's South West Fur Company. Indeed, in the inventory of Rousseau's estate done after his death the notary recorded 68 documents concerning the Michilimackinac Company, which suggests that commercial operations had continued on a large scale.

In October 1807 Rousseau owed £3,208 to David David and £1,500 to William and Andrew* Porteous for various goods that he had bought for trading. His creditors recognized Rousseau's honesty and integrity. Rousseau actually owned furs worth £850, which were later sold in England. Several people also owed him sums totalling 76,284 livres. He left for Michilimackinac in the spring of 1808. That summer he had a three-storey warehouse with a deep cellar and a kitchen built on Rue Notre-Dame Rousseau set up his headquarters in it.

He returned to the fur business in 1811, as soon as the Michilimackinac Company was liquidated. Unfortunately the pelts stored in one of his warehouses on the Place des Commissaires were stolen. He went back into business with Jean-Baptiste-Toussaint Pothier. Despite the uncertainty engendered by the war with the Americans he sent four canoes to Michilimackinac in the spring. Seeing that the route was open, he went into partnership with Michel Lacroix to send a second, last-minute expedition at the end of August; it consisted of two winterers, one hired for two years. In December he signed a partnership agreement with Paul-Joseph Lacroix. The collaboration was profitable and lasted until after Rousseau's death since Lacroix, his loyal partner, was his principal executor.

In the course of his career Rousseau invested in numerous pieces of landed property. He rarely mortgaged them, preferring to pay for them quickly. Only occasionally did he sell any, choosing instead to rent and improve them. In addition to those already mentioned he bought an impressive store on Rue Saint-Paul in 1803, as well as several lots and properties in the faubourg Sainte-Marie; he had at least one house built there, as well as a splendid store in 1820. In 1811 he was granted four pieces of land at Hemmingford which he gave to Marie-Anne Rousseau, the wife of his friend John (Jean-Baptiste) Delisle, in 1823. In 1814 he paid £2,250 for a fine property on Rue Notre-Dame that he rented to several merchants for £200 a year. In 1820 he bought some land in the seigneury of Léry, at Blairfindie (L'Acadie), which he immediately gave to one of his wife's adopted daughters. Throughout his life he regularly lent large sums to various people, and he frequently used his administrative talents as an attorney.

A biographical account of Rousseau would be incomplete without mention of his unusual marital situation. His relations with Charlotte Foureur remain unclear. He did not live with her over a long period because he had a regular female companion, Jean Cook, with whom in the years 1796-1811 he had five children, all unacknowledged publicly for a while. From 1803 Rousseau recognized them, gave them his name, and made them his heirs and their mother his usufructuary. Thereafter they lived in the faubourg Sainte-Marie, near Rousseau's other properties. Rousseau was alleged to have fathered two other children baptized at Michilimackinac in 1821, who were born of different mothers. In fact, it was his son, also called Dominique, who was the father of one mixed-blood girl and later the godfather of another. Charlotte Foureur for her part adopted two girls whom she had raised from childhood.

Rousseau's desire to bequeath his property to his illegitimate children became a veritable obsession. He drew up some ten wills, at least four of them in the last two years of his life. But the bequest made in 1812 was very unusual. Rousseau and his wife conjointly gave two properties to the five children, and to their mother as usufructuary. Nevertheless, after her husband's death Charlotte Foureur frustrated his wishes in part, by exercising the rights and covenants consented to in her marriage contract.

The inventory of Rousseau's goods after his death and the sale that followed show beyond any doubt that he had an opulent style of life; he had several domestic servants. He owned a dinner service for 60, and had enough food and drink to get him through a siege. The silverware was valued at £46 2s., and he left a credit balance of £880. Only part of the library was inventoried. Rousseau's main interests can, however, be determined from it: nature, law, finance, and the fur trade. The sale of his belongings brought in £286; his partner Paul-Joseph Lacroix bought 2,227 drop ear-rings.

Rousseau had begun his career as a master silversmith, but had soon turned his natural talents as a merchant to selling first silver-work and then all sorts of goods, and he wound up trading in furs. Because of the nature of his double career he had a privileged position in the marketing of trade silver, which reached a peak of production coinciding exactly with Rousseau's career and the extraordinary epic of the NWC. His career as a silversmith was, indeed, devoted exclusively to this specialty. But sooner than make the articles himself, he called upon the services of various professional colleagues. No example of this proto-industrial production has been preserved, and no mark has yet been attributed to Rousseau. It should be noted, however, that one contemporary silversmith at Detroit, Dominique Réopelle, had the same initials.

Dominique Rousseau's main activity, in truth, was trading in furs. His career gives insight into an economic situation pitting French-speaking merchants, on unequal terms, against monopolies held by English-speaking merchants marshalled in powerful companies. At the time of Rousseau's assaults on the NWC some hint of nationalism could be sensed in his claims to part of that lucrative market. The support he received in his lawsuit in 1802-3 and the agreements binding him to a number of French-speaking traders indicate there was a certain cohesion in this milieu, which has a history thus far neglected.

INDEX

[50042] "The Ellsworth American [Ellsworth, Maine], 11 May 2020": "Surry - Judge David Forrest Snow was born in Boston on March 15, 1932, to Albert Grindle Snow and Hope Farrington and passed away in the Northern Light Bangor hospital on April 30, 2020, after a short, undiagnosed illness (unrelated to COVID-19). During the Second World War, while his father, a Blue Hill native, was serving in the Army in Europe, David lived for four years with his mother in Blue Hill and attended the Consolidated School and George Stevens Academy. After the end of WWII, while his father was still serving in the Army in Germany, he attended The Lyceum Alpinum Zuoz in Switzerland. Eventually the Snows returned to the U.S., and David graduated from high school in Wisconsin. That was followed by a year at Stanford. When his father died in 1950, the family moved back east, and David transferred to Dartmouth College, where he graduated Phi Beta Kappa in 1954. He then attended graduate school at Harvard, where he hoped to get a Ph.D. in philosophy. When it occurred to him that he’d have trouble supporting himself, let alone a family (even though thinking was his favorite pastime), he switched to the law school, where he graduated magna cum laude in 1960. He and the family moved to Cleveland and he spent the next 38 years (except for one when he taught law at the University of Iowa) practicing law at the firm that is now known as Jones Day. In 1988, he was appointed to the U.S. Bankruptcy Court and became The Honorable David Forrest Snow. On the bench, Judge Snow was known for his keen intellect, upbeat demeanor, fairness to all litigants and ability to handle a large caseload with alacrity. He retired in 2000 and moved to the land of his paternal ancestors, where he had spent virtually every summer of his life, enjoying swimming, kayaking, wind surfing and the like on Toddy Pond. While living in Surry, he served as a board member of what was then simply called the Blue Hill Hospital, the Blue Hill Library, the Blue Hill Historical Society and Colloquy Downeast, and for many years was chairman of the Surry Appeals Board. His involvement with the Colloquy included his facilitating numerous colloquies on the U.S. Constitution and Supreme Court. In addition to his many bookish interests, he was lucky enough to be able to continue riding his bicycle around the mountain of Acadia at age 85, play duplicate bridge way too often until age 88, walk his beloved Goldendoodle, Grindle, virtually to the end of his life on a daily basis, and was damn good looking even at 88! David was predeceased by his parents, his brother George 'Twink' Snow of Orono and his grandson Nicholas Colwell. He is survived by his wife, Joyce Neiditz; son Dr. Nicholas Snow and wife, Dr. Cathleen McCoy; daughter Alison and husband, Benjamin Labaree; and daughter Catherine Twitchell; grandchildren Ian and Elizabeth Snow, Sarah and Jessica Twitchell and Danny Labaree; and his very best friend, his Goldendoodle that goes by the name of Grindle. David was an unusually kind, loving, empathetic, amusing, decent, incredibly honest, caring individual who will be greatly missed."
