Cape Girardeau's early story reaches back to the days of French troops. The State Historical Society of Missouri's historic place-name account describes Ensign Sieur Girardat, whose activities centered near Cape Girardeau. From 1704 to 1720, he served with the royal troops of France, stationed at Kaskaskia in the Illinois country. That account gives you an early name to connect with Cape Girardeau's title panel. The print brings the view into 2026, with today's city blocks beside the river.
