Factors that Opened
 West to Migration
By Michael Shumaker, Andrew Sanders, and Allison
                     Burns
End of Indian Wars
Geronimo's surrender in 1885
marked the end of the Indian Wars

Although there were a few
skirmishes afterwards Geronimo's
Apache tribe was the last that was
considered a threat to the people
in the West.
End Of Indian Wars (Cont.)
When considering migration within the Us,
the end of the Indian Wars helped spark a
mass migration to the West.



No longer was there a threat to the settler's
well being.



With the American Dream persuading them,
the citizens saw no drawbacks to going West.



The population of California rose from
864,700 in 1890 to 1,485,100 in 1900



That;s a 620,400 person increase
Barbed Wire
Barbed wire invented 1874 by
Joseph Glidden

Especially useful in great plains area
because there were no trees

As result, Great Plains fenced off
Barbed Wire and Cowboys
Cattle Drivers were especially hurt
by barbed Wire

Since there were now rows of
fences with with barbed wire,
cattle couldn't graze freely

Cattle Drives were no longer
possible

The invention of barbed wire
ultimately meant the end for the
cowboy
Railroads
The building of the railroads is
naturally connected with the
settlement of the West

Three natural resources were
needed to prosper in new territory:
land, water, and timber.

The Homestead Act of 1862 gave
settlers 160 acres of free
land, under certain conditions that
encouraged settlement.
Railroads
The Pacific Railway Act of 1862 set the
wheels of railroad expansion moving.
The Land Grant System gave millions
of acres to railroad builders.

Railroads enhanced the value of the
land enormously.

Sale of extra land by railroad
companies raised capital to finance
railroad building.

In 1869. The first Transcontinental line
was completed at Promontory, Utah

Railroad construction led to further
settlement of the West
