This chronology details major events occurring between 1837-1855 among the Iowa and Sac and Fox Indians who had been relocated to Kansas after the Indian Removal Act of 1830. Topics mentioned within the chronology include warfare among relocated tribes, the arrival of white emigrants, disease, mission buildings, and treaties ceding land to the United States government. During the period covered in this item unfolded a large number of white settlers began moving into the lands that the tribes occupied, especially after the passage of the Kansas-Nebraska Act in 1854.
Date: 1882
This source effectively demonstrates change over a broad time period and shows cause and effect—once white settlers arrived in full force, the Indians ended up relinquishing their rights to land in Doniphan County. This is also an easy-to-understand source outlining some of the conflicts between relocated tribes (in addition to the Iowa and Sac and Fox it references the Pawnee, Sioux, and Omaha tribes).
