| - The Fort Dumoine was a trading post built under the French regime in New France and located at the confluence of the Dumoine River and the Ottawa River, northwest side. This location is now in South-East part of Zec Dumoine, in Pontiac Regional County Municipality, in Outaouais region, in province of Quebec, in Canada. Its purpose was to facilitate trade with the Anishinaabe and to protect them against the raids of the Iroquois. The fort was built on a place of meeting and exchange used for a long time by the Atikamekw, Hurons, and other North Amerindian nations. In 1762, Alexander Henry passed through the mouth of the Dumoine, en route to Sault Ste-Marie. He noted that at the mouth of the Du Moine river, is another fort or trading post, where I found a small encampment of Maskegons Indians with whom I exchanged several articles for furs. Abandoned, the Fort Dumoine resumed its activities, thanks to the North West Company in 1784. The 1801 map by Alexander Mackenzie [4] indicates the course of the Du Moine river but does not go back to its source. In 1811, it became the property of the Hudson's Bay Company and did not cease its activities until 1860 because of the logging companies which, by destroying wildlife habitats, almost destroyed the beavers. The site was completely flooded by Holden Lake, following the construction of the Des Joachims dam from 1946. (en)

Il note qu' « à la bouche de la rivière Du Moine, se trouve un autre fort ou poste de traite, où j'ai trouvé un petit campement d'indiens Maskegons avec qui j'ai échangé plusieurs articles contre des fourrures. » Abandonné, le fort Dumoine reprend ses activités, grâce à la Compagnie du Nord-Ouest en 1784. La carte de 1801 d'Alexander Mackenzie [4] indique le tracé de la rivière Du Moine mais ne remonte pas jusqu'à sa source. En 1811, il devient propriété de la Compagnie de la Baie d'Hudson et ne cessera ces activités qu'en 1860 à cause des compagnies forestières qui, en détruisant les habitats fauniques, firent presque disparaître les castors. Le site se retrouve complètement inondé par le lac Holden, à la suite de la construction du barrage Des Joachims à partir de 1946. (fr)
