FOREWORD Model investigation of the control structure for Little Sioux River was authorized by the Office, Chief of Engineers on 25 May 1962, at the request of the U. S. Army Engineer District, Omaha. The study was conducted in the Hydraulics Division of the Waterways Experiment Station during the period July to December 1962. The investigation was conducted under the general supervision of Mr. E. P. Fortson, Jr., Chief of the Hydraulics Division, and Mr. F. R. Brown, Chief of the Hydrodynamics Branch, and under the direct supervision of Mr. T. E. Murphy, Chief of the Structures Section. The engineer in immediate charge of the model was Mr. E. S.

  • Up the Minnesota Valley to Fort Ridgely in 1853
    MINNESOTA AS SEEN BY TRAVELERS UP THE MINNESOTA VALLEY TO FORT RIDGELY IN 1853 The treaties of Traverse des Sioux and Mendota in the summer of 1851 greatly simplified the problem of providing homes for the thousands of immigrants who were flocking to Minnesota Territory. Prior to that date legal settlement had been confined to the region east of the Mississippi below the mouth of the Crow Wing River, but as James M. Goodhue, the editor of the Minnesota Pioneer, wrote in the issue for August 16, 1849, " These Sioux lands [west of the Missis­ sippi] are the admiration of every body, and the mouth of many a stranger and citizen waters while he looks beyond the Mississippi's flood upon the fair Canaan beyond." Small wonder, then, that Governor Alexander Ramsey worked for a treaty that would open these lands to white settlement. There was much opposition to the treaties in the Senate dur­ ing the spring of 1852, and they were not ratified until June 23 of that year. Henry H. Sibley, the territorial delegate in Congress, wrote to Ramsey that " never did any measures have a tighter squeeze through."^ Even after they were ratified, the eager settlers legally should have waited until the Indians could be removed and surveys made by the general land office. The land speculator and the settler, however, were not to be balked by such minor details as the presence of Indians and the lack of surveys. They went into the region before it was legally open to settlement and some even planted crops.

  • Stagecoach State Trail Master Plan Section 6
    Section 6: Cultural and Socioeconomic Resources Stagecoach State Trail Master Plan Section 6: Cultural and Socioeconomic Resources The area around Rochester was home to nomadic Sioux, Ojibwa, and Winnebago tribes of Native Americans. In 1851, the Sioux ceded the land to Minnesota Territory in the treaties of Traverse des Sioux and Mendota. In 1853, the treaties were concluded, opening the land for settlement. Since the time of early European settlement, people have been finding evidence of earlier human activity in the vicinity of Rice Lake. This evidence includes stone tools and pottery fragments, which have been found in significant numbers near the lakeshore and in the agricultural fields surrounding the lake. With the signing of the treaty of Traverse des Sioux in 1851, the Dakota Indians ceded their land in western and southern Minnesota, including the Rice Lake area, to the United States Government. The Dakota were restricted to reservation lands bordering the Minnesota River from the Little Rock River near New Ulm to the Minnesota - South Dakota Border. The Rice Lake State Park Management Plan indicates that in 1972, an archaeological excavation was conducted in the park by staff and students from the University of Minnesota, Department of Anthropology. The major excavation site was on the east shore of the eastern arm of the lake, a few hundred yards north of the Zumbro River branch outflow. The excavation uncovered a number of stone implements and pottery fragments, as well as some fire pits. Preliminary analysis suggested that the materials represent several different time periods, possibly from as early as the Archaic period (5,000 – 1,000 B.C.) to early historic times.

Norvitch ABSTRACT The alluvial channel deposits described in this report are in Nobles County, Minn., about 150 miles southwest of Minneapolis and St. Paul. Although four municipalities and many farms obtain part or all of their water needs from the alluvium, it has not yet been fully developed for ground water. The extent of the alluvial channel deposits was mapped on high-altitude aerial photographs, and a power auger was used to bore 43 test holes to determine the thickness of alluvium and the water level at each of the test sites.
