Joseph Francis Ladue (July 28, 1855 – June 27, 1900) was a
prospector
, businessman and founder of the
Dawson City, Yukon
. Joseph Francis Ladue was born in
Schuyler Falls, New York
. His mother died when he was only 7 years old, and his father died in 1874. Upon his father's death, 19-year-old Joe headed West. He worked in a gold mine as a general labourer, engineer, foreman and superintendent. He stuck with that and went prospecting through Arizona and New Mexico. He did not strike it rich and in 1882 he crossed the
Chilkoot Pass
into the interior of the
Yukon
. He was prospecting and trading there a couple of years
.
In August 1896, a few days after discovery of
gold
on
Klondike
, he staked 250 acres (1.0 km2) of bloggy flats at the mouth of the
Klondike River
to
Yukon River
as a townsite. In January 1897 he named a new town
Dawson
after Canadian geologist
George Mercer Dawson
. In July, 1897 about 5000 people lived there. Joe Ladue could sell town lots from $800 to $8000 and he could leave Dawson rich in that year.
He returned to his home town and in December 1897 he married Anna "Kitty" Mason. He came from Yukon rich, but unfortunately in poor health. He died at Schuyler Falls on June 27, 1900.
