Fur trader and interpreter on the upper Minnesota river during the 1830's. He was appointed Indian agent in 1834.
It is believed that in 1834, he located permanently at the mouth of the Little Rock (Mud) creek, where Joseph Renville, Jr. had a trading station. Prior to moving to Little Rock creek, he had been in charge of the post at the mouth of the Cottonwood River in Brown county. One source states that it was about 1834 when he took charge of the Cottonwood river post and that in that year, Hazen Mooers opened a post on the Little Rock and that LaFramboise did not relocate there until a few years later. He and Hazen Mooers are buried only a few feet apart at the Fort Ridgely cemetery.
Laframboise interpreted at two treaties signed between the Dakota and the U. S. government. He married Jane Dickson at Travers des Sioux in 1845; their marriage was one of the first marriages in Nicollet county.
