From Paul J. Smith's Weekly History Revue:

September 3rd.

Paul Writes -
BTW, If you are interested in the development of what is now southern Indiana, more can be found here. I've mentioned before that we owe the French a great deal.  In the aforementioned site the author notes that it was on a 1670 (I've seen 1668) trip down the Ohio that the great French explorer René-Robert Cavelier, Sieur de La Salle, may have been the first European to see the Falls of the Ohio River at what is now Louisville.

La Salle proceeded from the Ohio River back to Canada through what is now Indiana, probably fording the White River at what is now Indianapolis, perhaps making him the first European to see what is now Indianapolis.  It would be interesting to have a conversation with him and show him the skyline of Louisville now at those pesky falls or downtown Indianapolis just east of where the White River and Fall Creek came together in his day over three centuries ago.

I suppose in the interest of accuracy I should note that most historians doubt his journey took the route that I just described.  They think it is likely that the first European to see the falls was some unnamed French priest, explorer, or trader.  We'll probably never know.
