Moïse Goulet was a freighter who transported merchandise by Red River oxcart from St. Paul, Minnesota to Fort Garry.

His house was situated along the way, near the Rat River, two miles south of St-Pierre-Jolys. This was a "resting place" for the freighters. Dating from the late 1800's, this house built of hand-cut logs in a typical Red River style is a designated historical building at the municipal level.

It was given to the St-Pierre-Jolys Museum in 1985 and still stands straight and strong on the magnificent grounds of the museum.
