In 1837, the first trading posts were established among the Osages, by Edward Chouteau, Gerald Pappin and John Mathews, the latter locating near White Hair's village, now Oswego, Labette County. A half-breed settlement was established between Canville and Flat Rock Creek.||Among the latter who had business relations with the tribe under government license were Michel Giraud, whose trading-post was near the site of the present Erie, Edouard Chouteau, son of Auguste Pierre Chouteau and grandson of Auguste Chouteau, Laclede's associate in the founding of St. Louis, who resided at the mouth of Flat Rock Creek about two miles from the mission (his wife, Rosalie Capitaine, was a well-educated Osage mixed-blood),|_____________________________________________________||I, Edward L.
