	Toussaint Charbonneau - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Charbonneau was born in Boucherville, Quebec (near Montréal), a community with strong links to exploration and the fur trade.
		During the winter, Charbonneau communicated with members of the North West Company, and brought information back to Lewis' and Clark's company (during this period the situation between Britain and the United States was tense, and the group was concerned about how the British presence in the area would affect their group).
		Charbonneau's and Sacagawea's son Jean Baptiste was born during the winter at the fort, on February 11, 1805.

		Charbonneau eventually considered these women to be his wives, though whether they were bound through (Any member of the peoples living in North or South America before the Europeans arrived) Native American custom or simply through (A system of jurisprudence based on judicial precedents rather than statutory laws) common law is indeterminate.
		Charbonneau's and Sacagawea's son (additional info and facts about Jean Baptiste) Jean Baptiste was born during the winter at the fort, on February 11, 1805.
		Most of Charbonneau's positive contributions to the expedition itself were overshadowed by the incident with the "white (A canoe made by hollowing out and shaping a large log) pirogue," which also painted his wife Sacagawea in a very favorable light.

		Charbonneau knew how critical Sacagawea would be to Lewis and Clark when dealing with the Shoshone, so he attempted to dictate the terms of his employment.
		Charbonneau was given a voucher in the sum of $500.33, his payment for his interpreter duties and “public services,” plus the price of a horse and lodge.
		Toussaint was not suited to tilling the soil, and, moreover, both he and Sacagawea longed to return to their former lives on the upper Missouri.

		Charbonneau was needed to translate the Hidatsa words of his wife to French, which in turn several men on the expedition could then translate to English for Lewis and Clark.
		Charbonneau took up Clark's offer of settling on farmland in Missouri for a short time, but found it was not to his liking and sold the land back after a few months.
		Toussaint Charbonneau served sporadically as an interpreter for the Indian Bureau at the Upper Missouri Agency from 1811 to 1838, making an average of $300 to $400 per year from the government, very good money at that time.

		Charbonneau has been traced by historians through a kaleidoscope of famous personages with whom the famous trader, guide, and interpreter came into contact during his lifetime.
		His father, Toussaint Charbonneau, born of French-Canadian parents in 1758, began a career in 1793 as an engagé of the Northwest Fur Company, serving as a trader at Pine Fort on the Assimboine River.
		Late in 1846, Charbonneau advised Cooke of a route "different in part, and further than that taken by the general (Kearny), viz: to descend the river further and fall into a road from El Paso to the mines." Apparently Charbonneau was aware that Kearney had ordered Cooke to locate a wagon road.

		There, she was later sold as a slave to Toussaint Charbonneau, a French-Canadian fur trader who claimed Sacagawea and another Shoshone woman as his “wives.” In November 1804, the Corps of Discovery arrived at the Hidatsa-Mandan villages and soon built a fort nearby.
		As Clark explained in his journals, Charbonneau was hired “as an interpreter through his wife.” If and when the expedition met the Shoshones, Sacagawea would talk with them, then translate to Hidatsa for Charbonneau, who would translate to French.
		Then, through their intepreting chain of the captains, Labiche, Charbonneau, and Sacagawea, the expedition was able to purchase the horses it needed.

		It is best understood that at the end of the expedition, an invitation was made for Toussaint Charbonneau, Sacagawea, and their son to continue with the expedition back down river to St. Louis where land would be provided for them to farm, and so that Jean Baptise could be educated.
		Charbonneau agreed but with the stipulation that it would occur a year later when Jean-Baptiste would be old enough to leave his mother.
		The records at Fort Manuel indicate that Toussaint Charbonneau traveled without Sacagawea and was away at the time of her death in 1812.

		Lewis and Clark knew Charbonneau was married to a Shoshone indian girl named Sacajawea, which meant that they could use her to get horses to and as an Indian translator.
		Charbonneau knew how important Sacajawea would be to Lewis and Clark when dealing with the Shoshone, so Charbonneau tried very hard to set the the terms of his employment.
		Charbonneau was given $500.33 for all of his duties on the expedition.

	The Sacagawea Mystique: Her Age, Name, Role and Final Destiny
		On November 11, 1804, Captain William Clark recorded that Sacagawea's husband, Toussaint Charbonneau, had acquired both Shoshoni girls through "purchase from the Indians," and were claimed by him as his wives, a la façon due pays (after the fashion of the country).
		Toussaint was hired by the captains as a Hidatsa interpreter for the duration of their Fort Mandan winter stay.
		On August 20, 1806, in a letter he wrote to Toussaint while the homeward bound party was en route down the Missouri, Clark was contrite in acknowledging that Sacagawea had not been compensated for duties she had performed.

	Interpreters With Lewis and Clark: The Story of Sacagawea and Toussaint Charbonneau (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-27)
		This is the story of Toussaint Charbonneau, a French Canadian fur trader, and his Shoshone wife, Sacagawea, who both joined the Lewis and Clark expedition in 1804 as interpreters and guides.
		Sacagawea has become a near-legendary figure for her role on the expedition, but Toussaint's contribution largely has been overlooked--Lewis himself called him "a man of no peculiar merit." Now W. Dale Nelson offers a frank and honest portrayal of Toussaint, showing that his contributions as interpreter and guide were just as valuable as Sacagawea's help.
		Interpreters With Lewis And Clark: The Story Of Sacagawea And Toussaint Charbonneau by journalist and historian W. Dale Nelson is an informed and informative documented study of the lives of two prominent figures in Western history, Sacagawea and her husband, and their role in the near-legendary Lewis and Clark expedition of 1803.

		When interpreter Toussaint Charbonneau, a French Canadian fur trader living among the Hidatsas, and his Shoshone Indian wife, Sacagawea, joined the Lewis and Clark expedition in 1804, they headed into country largely unknown to them, as it was to Thomas Jefferson's hand-picked explorers.
