Article describing Madame Grandlouis as "the first white woman to settle here [Kansas City] before Madame Chouteau," arriving here "around 1798 or 1800" and living at the age of about 70 in a log cabin "opposite the junction of 5th and Bluff streets," with stories about her experiences with other early French fur traders, Indians, bears, etc., and death at the age of about 100, presumably in 1875.
