Louisiana Governor Jean-Baptiste Le Moyne, Sieur de Bienville next appointed Louis Groston de Saint-Ange de Bellerive to command Poste Vincennes.
With little help from the colonial government, St. Ange was able to build up the small village and attract new tribes to trade.
The opportunity for land attracted many new Canadien settlers, and the growing village was sometimes called St. Ange.
