  • Struggle for Land Ownership W
    The typical Iowa farmer and his family have a strong, con­ tinuing desire to own a farm that belongs to them alone. The family-sized farm grew up here, and won its popularity as the most practical unit for this region. 1. Struggle For Land Ownership W. G. MURRAY, Economics and Sociology AN AIRPLANE TRIP OVER IowA IN 1833-IF SUCH A TRIP had been possible-would have given the passengers an excellent view of a native prairie of unmatched fertility, with scarcely a sign of civili­ zation. A few Indians and some settlements along the Mississippi River would have been about the only signs of human activity. The same air view of Iowa today-as we near the midpoint of the Twentieth Century-presents a remarkable transformation. The Iowa prairie has been made into 213,000 farms enclosing 95 per cent of the state's area into productive fields, pastures, and farmsteads. Those who have seen present-day Iowa from the air are impressed by the regular pattern of straight roads which cut the landscape into square mile areas of productive farm land. They sense the strength · and independence of Iowa as they see the individual farmsteads which dot this landscape as far as the. eye can reach. Each farmstead is usually set off by itself with a white house, red barn, windmill, and distinctive grove of trees. How this Iowa was settled by hardy pioneers and how these same pioneers, their sons, and their grandsons succeeded and failed in the struggle for ownership of the state's fertile acres is recorded in three significant phases.

  • Iowa's Forests Today
    Iowa’s Forests Today An Assessment of the Issues and Strategies for Conserving and Maintaining Iowa’s Forests Iowa’s Forests Today An Assessment of the Issues and Strategies for Conserving and Maintaining Iowa’s Forests Author Aron Flickinger, DNR Special Projects Forester Editor Evan Miller GIS Analysis Kathryne Clark, DNR GIS Specialist Publishing Editor Emily Grover State Forester Paul Tauke Director Richard Leopold 1 Iowa Department of Natural Resources June 2010 State Forester Comments The Tauke family arrived in Dubuque in the late 1830s. Their plans to move further west were temporarily placed on hold when the father of the Fangman family they were traveling with suffered a broken leg. Not wanting to separate, the two families sought advice from Bishop Mathias Loras. Bishop Loras advised the families to overwinter in the area near what is now New Vienna. As it turned out there was something about the area that captivated both families and over 170 years later both the Tauke and Fangman families are still “temporarily” in the area. At the time these families settled in the Iowa Territory it contained slightly over 22,000 settlers and near 7 million acres of woodland. Today the State of Iowa has over 3 million people and slightly over 3 million acres of woodlands. As you will see in our State Forest Resource Assessment and Strategies document the fortunes of Iowa’s woodlands have ebbed and flowed since eastern European settlement. The purpose of this document, which is required by law in the 2008 Farm Bill, is to assess the condition of Iowa’s rural and urban forest resources and provide a framework or strategy for how all Iowans might move forward to better care for this resource.

  • Outline of United States Federal Indian Law and Policy
    Outline of United States federal Indian law and policy The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to United States federal Indian law and policy: Federal Indian policy – establishes the relationship between the United States Government and the Indian Tribes within its borders. The Constitution gives the federal government primary responsibility for dealing with tribes. Law and U.S. public policy related to Native Americans have evolved continuously since the founding of the United States. David R. Wrone argues that the failure of the treaty system was because of the inability of an individualistic, democratic society to recognize group rights or the value of an organic, corporatist culture represented by the tribes.[1] U.S. Supreme Court cases List of United States Supreme Court cases involving Indian tribes Citizenship Adoption Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians v.

  • They Would Not Be Moved : the Chippewa Treaty of 1854 / Edmund
    N AUGUST, 1854, Commissioner of Indian Affairs George W. Manypenny directed Agent Henry C. Gil­ bert of Detroit to arrange a treaty council with the Chippewa Indians to extinguish their titles to certain lands at the head of Lake Superior. The agent was also to establish reservations as future homes for the Lake Superior bands living along the shores of Michigan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota. ^ THEY Gilbert, head of the Mackinac Agency which embraced afi the Indians in Michigan as wefi as the Lake Superior Chippewa, dispatched a special messenger by way of Chicago and St. Paul WOULD to his Minnesota counterpart, Agent David B. Herriman, at Crow Wing. Gilbert asked Herriman to bring to the council ground a delegation of Mississippi River Chippewa chiefs and headmen who also claimed ownership of the lands in question. The Mack­ NOT inac agent left Detroit on August 26 and arrived at La Pointe, Wisconsin, on September 1. Herriman joined him about two weeks later.- BE The tiny vifiage of La Pointe on Madeline Island, offshore from Bayfield, Wisconsin, was an appropriate setting for treaty talks. La Pointe had been a focal point for white settlement on Lake Superior since the zestful days of French fur traders and MOVED missionaries. Thirteen miles long and averaging three miles wide, Madeline is the largest of the Apostle Island chain. Set against clear blue waters and skies, its rugged beauty com­ «e?> mands admiration. Red and brown sandstone shores loom wild and bold, while pleasant hills and stately elms, pines, and cedars exude cool serenity. Before the founding of Superior, Wisconsin, and Duluth in 1853 and 1854, bustling little La Pointe, located on Madeline's southwestern tip, had been the only port of call The Chippewa on western Lake Superior.

  • History and Constitution (PDF)
    HISTORY AND THE CONSTITUTION Chapter 7 HISTORY AND THE CONSTITUTION 309 EARLY HISTORY OF IOWA By Dorothy Schwieder, Professor of History, Iowa State University Marquette and Joliet Find Iowa Lush and Green In the summer of 1673, French explorers Louis Joliet and Father Jacques Marquette traveled down the Mississippi River past the land that was to become the state of Iowa. The two explorers, along with their five crewmen, stepped ashore near where the Iowa River flowed into the Missis- sippi. It is believed that the 1673 voyage marked the first time that white people visited the region of Iowa. After surveying the surrounding area, the Frenchmen recorded in their journals that Iowa appeared lush, green, and fertile. For the next 300 years, thousands of white settlers would agree with these early visitors: Iowa was indeed lush and green; moreover, its soil was highly produc- tive. In fact, much of the history of the Hawkeye State is inseparably intertwined with its agricul- tural productivity. Iowa stands today as one of the leading agricultural states in the nation, a fact foreshadowed by the observation of the early French explorers. The Indians Before 1673, however, the region had long been home to many Native Americans. Approxi- mately 17 different Indian tribes had resided here at various times including the Ioway, Sauk, Mesquaki, Sioux, Potawatomi, Oto, and Missouri. The Potawatomi, Oto, and Missouri Indians had sold their land to the federal government by 1830 while the Sauk and Mesquaki remained in the Iowa region until 1845. The Santee Band of the Sioux was the last to negotiate a treaty with the federal government in 1851.

  • Tribal Nations Issues and Perspectives
    GREAT LAKES REGIONAL COLLABORATION Tribal Nations Issues and Perspectives Version 1.0 April 26, 2005 The purpose of this document is to provide the GLRC Executive Committee and Strategy Teams with information on the nature of Tribal sovereignty, rights, and interests as they relate to Great Lakes environmental protection and natural resource conservation issues. The Framework document signed by the members of the GLRC noted that each Strategy Team should explicitly consider Tribal rights, interests, structure, and programs involved in its issue area and should identify priorities and strategies that relate to the health, welfare, and culture of Tribal communities. The Tribal Nations that signed the Framework have agreed to organize an ad hoc Tribal Caucus for the purposes of facilitating intertribal cooperation and coordinated participation in the GLRC processes. The Caucus prepared this document to help other GLRC participants better understand tribal governments and tribal communities so that the Great Lakes Protection and Restoration Strategy properly addresses and protects tribal needs. It is important to note that this report is not exhaustive in its scope or coverage, “legally” definitive, or representative of the “official” views any one Tribal Nation or tribal government. As this document is relatively general in nature, the Tribal Caucus welcomes inquiries from the Executive Committee and Strategy Teams regarding further details, supporting documentation, clarification, or additional resources and information. The Tribal Caucus anticipates an on-going dialogue on tribal issues and perspectives at all levels of the GLRC process. It hopes questions will be routinely addressed within the Strategy Teams themselves by individuals associated with Tribal Nations who are members of each Team, as well as by those who regularly are involved at the Executive Committee level.
