Lacroix (first name not recorded in the source used here) was one of three men accidentally drowned in 1689, on the return of Jacques de Noyon's trading party from Rainy Lake. The party had gone west in 1688 from Fort Nipigon up the Kaministiquia River and across Dog Lake. The lake where the three men drowned was later called Lac Sainte-Croix.[1]
