  • Trade and Change on the Columbia Plateau 1750-1840 Columbia Magazine, Winter 1996-97: Vol
    Trade and Change on the Columbia Plateau 1750-1840 Columbia Magazine, Winter 1996-97: Vol. 10, No. 4 By Laura Peers Early Europeans saw the Columbia Plateau as a walled fortress, isolated and virtually impossible to penetrate through the Rocky Mountain and Cascade ranges that formed its outer defenses. Fur traders and missionaries saw it as a last frontier, virgin and unspoiled. But this was an outsider's view. To the native people of the region, the Plateau was the center of the world, linked to the four corners of the continent by well-worn paths and a dense social and economic network. In fact, the Plateau was a crossroads for trade, one that became increasingly busy between 1750 and 1850. During this pivotal century, the quickening pace of trade became an uncontrolled torrent, a flash flood of new goods, new ideas and new diseases, an explosion of change, sometimes beneficial and sometimes deadly. By the late prehistoric era there were two major trade centers on the Plateau: at The Dalles, on the middle Columbia River, and at Kettle Falls, several hundred miles away on the upper Columbia. Members of tribes from across the Plateau and from the West Coast to the Missouri River converged on these sites every year. An astonishing quantity and variety of goods were exchanged at these sites, including dried fish from the Columbia; baskets, woven bags and wild hemp for fishnets from the Plateau region; shells, whale and seal oil and bone from the West Coast; pipestone, bison robes and feather headdresses from the Plains; and nuts and roots from as far away as California.

  • Using GFO Land Records for the Oregon Territory
    GENEALOGICAL MATERIALS IN FEDERAL LAND RECORDS IN THE FORUM LIBRARY Determine the Township and Range In order to locate someone in the various finding aids, books, microfilm and microfiche for land acquired from the Federal Government in Oregon, one must first determine the Township (T) and Range (R) for the specific parcel of interest. This is because the entire state was originally surveyed under the cadastral system of land measurement. The Willamette Meridian (north to south Townships) and Willamette Base Line (east to west Ranges) are the principal references for the Federal system. All land records in Oregon are organized by this system, even those later recorded for public or private transactions by other governments. Oregon Provisional Land Claims In 1843, the provisional government was organized in the Willamette Valley. In 1849 the territorial government was organized by Congress in Washington D.C. Look to see if your person of interest might have been in the Oregon Country and might have applied for an Oregon Provisional Land Claim. Use the Genealogical Material in Oregon Provisional Land Claims to find a general locality and neighbors to the person for those who might have filed at the Oregon City Land Office. This volume contains all the material found in the microfilm copy of the original records. There are over 3700 entries, with an uncounted number of multiple claims by the same person. Oregon Donation Land Claims The Donation Land Act passed by Congress in 1850 did include a provision for settlers who were residents in Oregon Territory before December 1, 1850. They were required to re-register their Provisional Land Claims in order to secure them under the Donation Land Act.

  • Historical Overview
    HISTORIC CONTEXT STATEMENT The following is a brief history of Oregon City. The intent is to provide a general overview, rather than a comprehensive history. Setting Oregon City, the county seat of Clackamas County, is located southeast of Portland on the east side of the Willamette River, just below the falls. Its unique topography includes three terraces, which rise above the river, creating an elevation range from about 50 feet above sea level at the riverbank to more than 250 feet above sea level on the upper terrace. The lowest terrace, on which the earliest development occurred, is only two blocks or three streets wide, but stretches northward from the falls for several blocks. Originally, industry was located primarily at the south end of Main Street nearest the falls, which provided power. Commercial, governmental and social/fraternal entities developed along Main Street north of the industrial area. Religious and educational structures also appeared along Main Street, but tended to be grouped north of the commercial core. Residential structures filled in along Main Street, as well as along the side and cross streets. As the city grew, the commercial, governmental and social/fraternal structures expanded northward first, and with time eastward and westward to the side and cross streets. Before the turn of the century, residential neighborhoods and schools were developing on the bluff. Some commercial development also occurred on this middle terrace, but the business center of the city continued to be situated on the lower terrace. Between the 1930s and 1950s, many of the downtown churches relocated to the bluff as well.

  • The Anglo-American Crisis Over the Oregon Territory, by Donald Rakestraw
    92 BC STUDIES For Honor or Destiny: The Anglo-American Crisis over the Oregon Territory, by Donald Rakestraw. New York: Peter Lang, 1995. xii, 240 pp. Illus. US$44.95 cloth. In the years prior to 1846, the Northwest Coast — an isolated region scarcely populated by non-Native peoples — was for the second time in less than a century the unlikely flashpoint that brought far-distant powers to the brink of war. At issue was the boundary between British and American claims in the "Oregon Country." While President James Polk blustered that he would have "54^0 or Fight," Great Britain talked of sending a powerful fleet to ensure its imperial hold on the region. The Oregon boundary dispute was settled peacefully, largely because neither side truly believed the territory worth fighting over. The resulting treaty delineated British Columbia's most critical boundary; indeed, without it there might not even have been a British Columbia. Despite its significance, though, the Oregon boundary dispute has largely been ignored by BC's historians, leaving it to their colleagues south of the border to produce the most substantial work on the topic. This most recent analysis is no exception. For Honor or Destiny: The Anglo-American Crisis over the Oregon Territory, by Donald Rakestraw, began its life as a doctoral thesis completed at the University of Alabama. Published as part of an American University Studies series, Rakestraw's book covers much the same ground as did that of his countryman Frederick Merk some decades ago. By making extensive use of new primary material, Rakestraw is able to present a fresh, succinct, and well-written chronological narrative of the events leading up to the Oregon Treaty of 1846.

  • 104. (3) Pacific Northwest Boundaries, 1848-1868
    104 IDAHO STATE HISTORICAL SOCIETY REFERENCE SERIES PACIFIC NORTHWEST BOUNDARIES, 1848-1868 Number 104 1963 In twenty years of boundary making, the years from 1848 to 1868, the United States Congress produced six different political maps of the Pacific Northwest, and the Idaho region was affected by each of the changes. Two years after Great Britain and the United States reached a Pacific Northwest boundary agreement in 1846, Congress established the United States' portion of the region as the territory of Oregon. (Before that time, the Oregon country had been unorganized politically.) Thus in 1848, all the land which later was known as Idaho became part of Oregon territory. Then in 1853, settlement north of the Columbia and west of the Cascades was sufficient to justify creation of a new territory of Washington. Most of Idaho, however, remained in Oregon until admission of Oregon as a state in 1859 led to the decision that the final eastern state boundary would be the present Idaho-Oregon line. Since Idaho then remained unsettled, the area was tacked onto Washington--temporarily at least. At that time scarcely anyone was expected to live in Idaho until sometime in the twentieth century, and Congress anticipated no need for further boundary revision for another fifty years. But in 1860, the founding of Pierce and Franklin altered the situation entirely. Gold discoveries in the Nez Perce country in 1860 changed the pattern of settlement in Washington territory abruptly. By 1862, the Idaho mines had surpassed the older, western part of the territory in population. And unless the mines were put into a new territory, political control of Washington was about to move from Puget Sound to the new Idaho mining region.

  • Oregon Territory!
    Expansion- Oregon Territory! - Americans felt it was our fate and our right to move West! This was called Manifest Destiny. - In 1844, James Polk (the democratic candidate) favored expanding West and promised to add new land to the U.S. if elected. - The U.S. shared Oregon with Great Britain, at the time. - The Oregon Territory contained present day Idaho, Oregon, Washington, Wyoming, and Montana. The land was originally owned by Native Americans who traded fur in this region. - Polk won the election in 1844 and became President. - Polk used the slogan “Fifty-four forty or fight!” This was the latitude line of the territory. Polk settled for half. Meaning that half the land was owned by the U.S. and half belonged to Great Britain. The boundary was called the 49th parallel and it went all the way to the Pacific Coast. - The main route to arrive in Oregon was through the Oregon Trail. Families would meet in Missouri, take wagons to travel through the dangerous trail. They had to cross rivers, snow in the mountains, faced illness, and deal with Indian attacks to travel to Oregon. - More than 50,000 people completed this journey on the Oregon Trail and settled in the new territory. Many Americans wanted to own Oregon alone. - Negotiation between the U.S. and Britain over Oregon took place. The Oregon Treaty was established. - The Oregon Treaty of 1846 was between the U.S. and Great Britain and it ended the dispute between border boundaries. - Polk gained Oregon as a U.S owned territory in 1848 and as a state in 1859 .

  • General Land Office Book
    FORWARD n 1812, the General Land Office or GLO was established as a federal agency within the Department of the Treasury. The GLO’s primary responsibility was to oversee the survey and sale of lands deemed by the newly formed United States as “public domain” lands. The GLO was eventually transferred to the Department of Interior in 1849 where it would remain for the next ninety-seven years. The GLO is an integral piece in the mosaic of Oregon’s history. In 1843, as the GLO entered its third decade of existence, new sett lers and immigrants had begun arriving in increasing numbers in the Oregon territory. By 1850, Oregon’s European- American population numbered over 13,000 individuals. While the majority resided in the Willamette Valley, miners from California had begun swarming northward to stake and mine gold and silver claims on streams and mountain sides in southwest Oregon. Statehood would not come for another nine years. Clearing, tilling and farming lands in the valleys and foothills and having established a territorial government, the settlers’ presumed that the United States’ federal government would act in their behalf and recognize their preemptive claims. Of paramount importance, the sett lers’ claims rested on the federal government’s abilities to negotiate future treaties with Indian tribes and to obtain cessions of land—the very lands their new homes, barns and fields were now located on. In 1850, Congress passed an “Act to Create the office of the Surveyor-General of the public lands in Oregon, and to provide for the survey and to make donations to settlers of the said public lands.” On May 5, 1851, John B.
