Migration/movement/forced removal Oklahoma History C3 Standard 2.3 “Integrate visual and textual evidence to explain the reasons for and trace the migrations of Native American peoples including the Five Tribes into present-day Oklahoma, the Indian Removal Act of 1830, and tribal resistance to the forced relocations.” Oklahoma History C3 Standard 2.7 “Compare and contrast multiple points of view to evaluate the impact of the Dawes Act which resulted in the loss of tribal communal lands and the redistribution of lands by various means including land runs as typified by the Unassigned Lands and the Cherokee Outlet, lotteries, and tribal allotments.” Original Homeland - The Peoria Tribe of Indians of Oklahoma is a confederation of Kaskaskia, Peoria, Piankeshaw and Wea Indians united into a single tribe in 1854. The tribes which constitute The Confederated Peorias, as they then were called, originated in the lands bordering the Great Lakes and drained by the mighty Mississippi. They are Illinois or Illini Indians, descendants of those who created the great mound civilizations in the central United States two thousand to three thousand years ago. The increased pressure from white settlers in the 1840’s and 1850’s in Kansas brought cooperation among the Peoria, Kaskaskia, Piankashaw and Wea Tribes to protect these holdings. By the Treaty of May 30, 1854, 10 Stat. 1082, the United States recognized the cooperation and consented to their formal union as the Confederated Peoria.

War of 1812 by Beth Carvey the Sauk and Meskwaki and the War of 1812 Prelude to War the War of 1812 Was a Significant Event in S
War of 1812 by Beth Carvey The Sauk and Meskwaki and the War of 1812 Prelude to War The War of 1812 was a significant event in Sauk and Meskwaki history and also for many other native nations who resided along and near the Mississippi River. The War of 1812 was actually two wars: an international war fought between the United States and Great Britain in the east and an Indian war fought in the west. This article is the first of a four-part series which will explore the War of 1812 in terms of native peoples’ points of view, the military actions that occurred in the western frontier theater, and the consequences for the Sauk and Meskwaki that resulted from the American victory. In 1812 the western frontier was comprised of the Mississippi, Illinois, and Missouri River regions, encompassing parts of present-day Wisconsin, Illinois, and northwest Missouri. More than ten different native nations, including the Sauk and Meskwaki, lived on these lands with an estimated population of 25,000 people. After the Louisiana Purchase in 1803 the native people of the region had been growing increasingly unhappy with the United States. Four main reasons were at the heart of this unhappiness: arrogance and ignorance on the part of many American officials; illegal white settlement on native lands; a number of treaties that dispossessed tribes of their lands; and economic matters, specifically the fur trade. The Sauk and Meskwaki had poor relations with the United States government since the signing of the fraudulent Treaty of 1804, whereby the two nations ceded over 50 million acres of land to the United States.

By the Kansas State Historical Society Evidence #1 Letter from Pierre Menard The United States government assigned Indian agents to assist tribes. It was the Indian agent’s job to make sure that the Indians received what was promised to them. Pierre Menard was the Indian agent who worked with the Shawnee, Delaware, Peoria, Piankeshaw, and Kickapoo. He was familiar with the problems the Indians faced moving west to what is now Kansas. Indians moving west would travel on land or on rivers. Sometimes the long journey would require both. The trip was never pleasant for the Indians. They were forced to leave their homes for a new place that was foreign to them. Sometimes their horses were stolen. Sometimes the weather was harsh. It was not an easy trip. Pierre Menard was asked to estimate the cost of moving the Shawnee and Seneca from Ohio to Kansas. He was also estimating the cost of moving the Miami from Indiana to Kansas. rkm8_evid1.qxp 4/22/08 9:21 PM Page 2 Kaskaskia, 8th Oct: 1830. Dear Sir: Enclosed, you have … an estimate of the probable expense attending the emigrating Shawnees & Senecas from the State of Ohio, and the Miamis from Indiana, for the year 1831. If the information I lately [received] by the last party of Emigrating Senecas, is correct, the number stated in the estimate will not fall short. ... The merchandise to be given is uncertain; it depends entirely upon the season in which they move.

Greenville Treaty Lesson Plans
Ramseyer Farms 4000 Ramseyer Lane 330-264-0264 Wooster, Ohio www.ramseyerfarms.com Greenville Treaty Lesson Plans Objective: The student will be able to examine and interpret primary source documents The student will be able to use map skills to plot locations related to the Greenville Treaty Background: General Anthony Wayne defeated the Indians at the Battle of Fallen Timbers on August 20, 1794. The Indians surrendered and came to Greenville one year later to sign a peace treaty. General Wayne said he hoped the treaty would hold “as long as the woods grow and waters run.” The Treaty of Greenville marked the end of the Indian Wars in Ohio. Tecumseh, a Shawnee Chief, refused to sign the Greenville Treaty. Instead, he started a settlement in violation of the Treaty. He traveled extensively among various Native American tribes and worked to form a confederation that would present a united resistance to the United States. His plans failed when his brother, “The Prophet,” foolishly became engaged in and lost the battle with American forces in Indiana. Procedure: 1. Introduce the setting for the Greenville Treaty. 2. Distribute copies of Greenville Treaty Excerpts to students in small groups. 3. Have students read and summarize each article and answer the following: a. What agreement was made about prisoners? (all returned) b. Plot the treaty line on a map. Color the Indian lands red and the U.S. lands blue. (see map) c. Now plot your school on the map. Which side are you on? d. What rights did the Indians keep? (hunt peaceably in US lands) e.

Use the following search terms: Removal (Advanced Search, using Record Group 75) and “Arkansas Indian” (include quotation marks).

The Battle of Fallen Timbers and the Treaty of Fort Greeneville
A Thesis Entitled The Battle of Fallen Timbers and the Treaty of Fort Greeneville: Why Did Anthony Wayne Win Both and Could He Have Lost? By Bryce Dixon Blair Jr. Submitted as partial fulfillment of the requirements for The Master of Liberal Studies ____________________ Advisor: Dr. Alfred Cave ____________________ Committee Member: Dr. Michael Jakobson ____________________ Graduate School The University of Toledo May 2005 Acknowledgements This thesis project would have forever remained an uncompleted enigma without crucial support and assistance from several people. My first and most heartfelt thanks go to my wife, Cherie. She worked even harder as almost a single parent during the long hours of reading, research, and writing that quite often kept me away from the family. She left me alone when I needed privacy and solitude and she prodded me to varying degrees when I needed greater focus and motivation. She has also been my invaluable technical advisor for the art of computer science. Though they are too young to appreciate this now, I thank my two young children, Bryce and Eryn, for accepting an absent Dad at times. They provided me with love and attention and much needed respites from academic pursuits. I thank my parents, Bryce and Eleanor, who have always placed a strong emphasis on intelligence and education by example but have done so without judgement. My mother lent me a copy of James Thom’s Panther In The Sky about a dozen years ago and this helped to rejuvenate my interest in this historical era. Special credit is due my thesis committee: Dr.

(Ph.D., History) The Emigrant Métis of Kansas: Rethinking the Pioneer Narrative Dissertation directed by Associate Professor Ralph Mann Under the U.S. government’s nineteenth century Indian removal policies, more than ten thousand Eastern Indians, mostly Algonquians from the Great Lakes region, relocated in the 1830s and 1840s beyond the western border of Missouri to what today is the state of Kansas. With them went a number of mixed-race people – the métis, who were born of the fur trade and the interracial unions that it spawned. This dissertation focuses on métis among one emigrant group, the Potawatomi, who removed to a reservation in Kansas that sat directly in the path of the great overland migration to Oregon and California.

American Indians in Oklahoma OKLAHOMA HISTORY CENTER EDUCATION DEPARTMENT Nawa! That means hello in the Pawnee language. In Oklahoma, thirty-eight federally recognized tribes represent about 8 percent of the population.

Their diverse cultures and rich heritage make Oklahoma (which combines the Choctaw words “okla” and “huma,” or “territory of the red people”) a special state. American Indians have impacted Oklahoma’s growth from territory to statehood and have made it into the great state it is today. This site allows you to learn more about American Indian tribes in Oklahoma. First, read the background pages for more information, then go through the biographies of influential American Indians to learn more about him or her. The activities section has coloring sheets, games, and other activities, which can be done as part of a group or on your own. Map of Indian Territory prior to 1889 (ITMAP.0035, Oklahoma Historical Society Map Collection, OHS). American Indians │2016 │1 Before European Contact The first people living on the prairie were the ancestors of various American Indian tribes. Through archaeology, we know that the plains have been inhabited for centuries by groups of people who lived in semi-permanent villages and depended on planting crops and hunting animals. Many of the ideas we associate with American Indians, such as the travois, various ceremonies, tipis, earth lodges, and controlled bison hunts, come from these first prairie people. Through archaeology, we know that the ancestors of the Wichita and Caddo tribes have been in present-day Oklahoma for more than two thousand years.
