In 1840, Joseph Deroin set up a trading post along the Missouri River at the mouth of the Platte, at the main village of the Otoe. Deroin was the son of a Métis French Canadian trapper Amable De Rouins and his Otoe wife. The elder De Rouins had traded along the nearby Missouri River for decades, and a trading post was already operating near the townsite when Lewis and Clark came through with their expedition in 1804. The town of St. Deroin grew up around the trading post and was named in 1853 after Joseph Deroin was killed in an argument. Today it is a ghost town.
