The document discusses who the Homesteaders were and why they went West in the late 19th century. The Homesteaders were farmers who took advantage of the Homestead Act of 1862 to acquire 160 acres of free land in the Great Plains region. They went West for several reasons, including that the Mississippi Valley had become overcrowded, poverty among immigrants, religious persecution, curiosity, career building opportunities, encouragement from friends and family, and advertisements about free land under the Homestead Act.

The Victorians
The Victorian era in Britain during Queen Victoria's reign from 1837 to 1901 was characterized by strict moral codes and class divisions reflected in fashion. Wealthy women were expected to dress in lavish clothing to display social status and family wealth according to rigid etiquette rules that dictated multiple daily outfit changes. Men were also bound by conventions prescribing correct dress for every occasion. Oscar Wilde embraced the Aesthetic movement that rebelled against mass-produced goods of the Industrial Revolution through unique, flowing styles of dress. Social class was evident even in church seating arrangements and the treatment of married women under the law reflected the era's hypocrisy.

Westward expansion
Westward expansion from 1865 to 1914 led to significant changes across the United States. The discovery of gold in California in 1849 sparked the Gold Rush, drawing thousands of prospectors West in search of wealth. This period also saw the expansion of the cattle industry, growth of the railroad system, and an influx of homesteaders and immigrants seeking land and opportunity. However, westward settlement increasingly came into conflict with Native American tribes, leading to broken treaties, warfare, and the eventual confinement of most tribes to reservations by the late 19th century.
His 3002 Visuals Ch19
As white settlers pushed west in the late 19th century, Native Americans were forced onto small reservations as their lands were taken over through a series of treaties. The expansion of the railroad network promoted economic development of the West's resources and linked the region to outside markets. Various industries developed regionally, with ranching and agriculture dominating the sparsely populated West. Meanwhile, the government and missionaries sought to suppress Native cultures through schools that promoted Americanization.
Frontiers of Change, 1865 1898
The document discusses westward expansion in the United States following the Civil War. It describes how the 1862 Homestead Act encouraged settlement by offering citizens parcels of free or low-cost land. The transcontinental railroad network expanded rapidly in the late 1800s, opening up the West to greater development. Cattle ranching became a major industry, with longhorn cattle driven north on trails like the Chisholm Trail to railheads and markets. Conflict increased with Plains Indians as settlers and the army seized more land, culminating in the massacre at Wounded Knee in 1890 that marked the end of the Plains Indian way of life.
4.1 Miners and cowboys in the west
Miners and ranchers helped build the American West in the late 19th century. Miners flocked to locations where gold and silver were discovered, creating boomtowns like Virginia City, Nevada and Colorado mining towns. Ranchers drove cattle on long trails from Texas to railroads in Kansas, establishing the cowboy culture and cattle drives along trails like the Chisholm Trail. The invention of barbed wire by Joseph Glidden ended the open range by allowing farmers to fence off their land, changing the cattle industry.
Exoduster
The document discusses the Exoduster Movement which occurred between 1879-1880, when thousands of African Americans migrated from the American South to Kansas after the Civil War. It describes the difficult conditions blacks faced in the South after the war, with the loss of federal protections and rise of groups like the Ku Klux Klan. It also summarizes information about Benjamin "Pap" Singleton, known as the "Father of the Exodus," who organized colonies for black migrants in Kansas. While many migrants struggled at first, some were able to establish farms and communities, making the migration a partial success overall.
From revolution to civil war
The document summarizes key developments in the United States between 1790-1860, including territorial expansion, economic growth driven by industrialization and slavery, increasing population including immigration and the slave trade, and rising tensions between the North and South over the issues of slavery and states' rights. Transportation networks like canals, railroads, and telegraph played a major role in connecting the growing country and supporting economic activity.
Settling The West Review Student
The document summarizes the settlement of the American West between 1865 and 1890. It describes how the frontier pushed westward due to the Homestead Act, transcontinental railroad, mining, cattle ranching, and farming. It also discusses the subduing of Native Americans through broken treaties and warfare, which resulted in their confinement to reservations by 1890. The closing of the frontier by 1890 marked the end of an era in American history.
History of immigration
Immigrants came to the US in large waves from the early 1800s through the early 1900s. The first wave from 1815-1860 was mainly from northwestern Europe, including the Irish fleeing the potato famine. Later waves brought more southern and eastern Europeans. They came for economic opportunities and religious freedom, and worked in farms, factories, and mines. While they faced discrimination, immigrants maintained cultural traditions that influenced American culture over time.
Conquest of the West
The tribes of the Pacific Northwest were decimated by disease, with over 150,000 deaths. The Southwest had a mix of Mexican, Native American, and Spanish cultures, including Apache, Navajo, Pueblo, and Comanche tribes. On the plains, the most powerful tribe was the Sioux, with others including the Pawnee, Arapaho, and Cheyenne, who depended on buffalo. After the Civil War, Mexicans/Mexican-Americans faced discrimination and loss of land, often working in migrant farming or unskilled labor. Chinese immigrants faced racism and struggled financially, working dangerous jobs building the transcontinental railroad. Their growing population led to the creation of Chinatowns but also increasing anti
Lecture 8- The American North
This document summarizes key aspects of northern society in the 19th century, including:
- The transition from an agricultural to industrial economy and the rise of wage labor. Strikes increased over working conditions.
- Rapid urbanization and the growth of cities led to problems with infrastructure, poverty, and crime. Immigrants, especially Irish fleeing the potato famine, comprised a large part of the urban population.
- Racial tensions increased as African Americans faced discrimination and job disadvantages. Nativist groups attacked immigrants and Catholics.
- The Second Great Awakening saw a revival of evangelical Protestantism but divisions emerged along class lines in approaches to reform.
- The Democratic and Whig parties emerged

Miners and ranchers helped build the American West in the late 19th century. Miners flocked west during the Gold Rush, founding boomtowns when gold and silver deposits were discovered. The Comstock Lode silver deposit in Nevada transformed San Francisco and sparked a rush of over 30,000 people to Virginia City. Ranchers drove cattle on long trails from Texas to markets in Kansas, establishing the iconic cowboy culture and cattle towns along trails like the Chisholm Trail. However, the open range era ended when barbed wire was invented, allowing farmers to fence off their land.

The American Fur Company
The American Fur Company was a relentless monopoly built in the climactic era of the fur trade. It was created in 1808 by John Jacob Astor, a striving German immigrant, in an environment so favorable that over vast North American territories it had more power than the fledgling American government.
In its time, this company shaped the destiny ofa young nation. It made Astor the richest American of his day. Yet by the 1830s its situation had so changed that it and the 300-year-old trade in furs collapsed.
ASTOR ARRIVES IN
A YOUNG NATION
In 1763 Astor was born to a butcher and his wife in the German village of Waldorf. In childhood he met hardship. The family was poor and often hungry, his mother died and a new step-mother was hostile. He spent much time alone but grew into a strong, diligent young man. Finding no joy in his father’s butchering work, at the age of 15 he left the village for London, working four years there to save money for an ocean voyage to the New World. In
1783, at the age of 20, with no education, little money, and speaking poor English, he set sail on a merchant ship. During the long voyage, a fur trader taught him how to appraise and handle skins.
These lessons gave Astor knowledge he needed for an occupation. He would soon show himself an apt student.
At this time, the fur trade on the North American continent was almost 300 years old. It had begun early in the sixteenth century after Spanish and
French explorers made contact with native forest dwellers, and it soon included the British. The Europeans wanted beaver, martin, ermine, .
Conquest of the Far West
Tribes of the Pacific Northwest were decimated by disease, with over 150,000 deaths. The Southwest had a mix of Mexican, Native American, and Spanish cultures, including Apache, Navajo, Pueblo, and Comanche tribes. On the plains, the most powerful tribe was the Sioux, with others including the Pawnee, Arapaho, and Cheyenne, who depended on buffalo. Chinese immigrants faced racism and discrimination as they arrived for work on the Transcontinental Railroad and in gold mines, and many lived in Chinatowns in urban areas. The closing of the frontier in 1890 marked the end of the period of American history defined by the movement and settlement of the frontier line.
John Henry Gordon & Hannah Hudson
This document provides biographical information on John Henry Gordon and Hannah Hudson, early pioneers who emigrated from England to the United States and Utah in the 1850s-1860s. It details that John Henry Gordon was born in 1826 in Bishopwearmouth, England and worked as a coal miner. He married Hannah Hudson in 1848. They had four children while living in coal mining towns in England. Sometime between 1855-1860, they emigrated with their children to Ohio, then Nebraska, and finally to Utah with Captain Murdock's wagon train in 1861 to escape difficult economic conditions and the American Civil War.
Cattle Industry
The document discusses the development of the cattle industry on the Great Plains in the late 19th century. It was driven by several key factors: the end of the Civil War increased demand for beef in the East, while the Plains Indians wars and reservations opened new markets for cattle suppliers. The building of the Transcontinental Railroad allowed cattle to be transported profitably from Texas to eastern cities, fueling the establishment of cow towns at railheads. Enterprising cattle barons like Goodnight and Loving helped establish the first cattle drives and trails, marking the rise of open range ranching and the need for cowboys to herd the cattle.
Immigration - A Summary for Grades 5-8

History Of Immigration
The document discusses the history of immigration to the United States from the early 1800s through the early 20th century. It describes the various waves of immigration and reasons immigrants left their home countries, including famine in Ireland and economic opportunities in the US. The largest groups of immigrants came from Northern and Western Europe in the first half of the 1800s, and Eastern and Southern Europe between 1890-1914. Immigrants faced challenges integrating and some laws were passed to restrict immigration.
Ppp Conflict 1860s
The document discusses the growing conflict between Indians and white settlers in the 1860s. The influx of homesteaders and gold miners onto Indian hunting grounds after 1862, including along a new trail, violated treaties and led Indians like Red Cloud to attack travelers to defend their lands. Additionally, the U.S. Army began constructing forts along the trail, further angering Red Cloud. These tensions escalated into open conflict, culminating in the killing of 100 soldiers led by Captain Fetterman in 1866. Subsequent treaties attempted but failed to establish peace as not all tribes agreed to terms.
Jcw
Cattle barons accused farmers of cattle rustling as a pretext to seize their land. A rancher named Bothwell wanted to take land belonging to a shopkeeper, James Averill. Bothwell accused Averill of theft, and Averill and his partner Ella Watson were later lynched. In 1892, cattle barons hired gunmen to deal with suspected rustlers, but the sheriff assembled a farmer army and drove the gunmen back to their ranch. The barons called in the cavalry for help, and their power eventually declined as homesteading expanded.

The document discusses the history of immigration to the United States from the early 1800s through the early 20th century. It describes the various waves of immigration and reasons immigrants left their home countries, including famine in Ireland and economic opportunities in the US. The largest groups of immigrants came from Northern and Western Europe in the first half of the 1800s, and Eastern and Southern Europe between 1890-1914. Immigrants faced challenges integrating and some laws were passed to restrict immigration.

Ppp Conflict 1860s
The document discusses the growing conflict between Indians and white settlers in the 1860s. The influx of homesteaders and gold miners onto Indian hunting grounds after 1862, including along a new trail, violated treaties and led Indians like Red Cloud to attack travelers to defend their lands. Additionally, the U.S. Army began constructing forts along the trail, further angering Red Cloud. These tensions escalated into open conflict, culminating in the killing of 100 soldiers led by Captain Fetterman in 1866. Subsequent treaties attempted but failed to establish peace as not all tribes agreed to terms.
Jcw
Cattle barons accused farmers of cattle rustling as a pretext to seize their land. A rancher named Bothwell wanted to take land belonging to a shopkeeper, James Averill. Bothwell accused Averill of theft, and Averill and his partner Ella Watson were later lynched. In 1892, cattle barons hired gunmen to deal with suspected rustlers, but the sheriff assembled a farmer army and drove the gunmen back to their ranch. The barons called in the cavalry for help, and their power eventually declined as homesteading expanded.
Ppp Life Better
The Johnson County War marked both the height and end of the Wild West era due to the political, social, and economic changes happening in the American West during that time. Settlers were moving West in large numbers in the 1840s-1860s, bringing changes like the growth of cattle ranching, railroads, mining, and Mormon settlements that led to more law and order being established by the 1870s-1890s.
Ppp Indian Warparth
The document discusses several treaties made between Native American tribes and the U.S. government in the 1830s-1860s that ceded tribal homelands. This included the 1851 Fort Laramie Treaty that promised land and supplies but settlers still entered tribal lands. The 1861 Fort Wise Treaty established a poor quality reservation for the Cheyenne. The 1867 Medicine Creek Treaty had multiple tribes agree to give up land for small, insufficient reservations. The 1868 Fort Laramie Treaty changed Sioux territory to include the Black Hills. As a result of these broken treaties and loss of lands and resources, many Native Americans went to war to defend their remaining homelands and way of life.
Ppp Why Wild West
The document outlines various rules and expectations for students in a history department. It emphasizes the importance of being on time, being prepared with necessary equipment, sitting silently until attendance is taken, bringing and caring for assigned textbooks, properly formatting and presenting written work with dates, titles, spelling and grammar checks, using pens and pencils appropriately, writing down homework assignments, behaving politely, and always doing one's best work. Students are expected to show respect, commitment, and accountability in their lessons.
L5 Sources On Na
This document discusses the usefulness of different sources for learning about Native American culture. It examines a 1903 painting of an Indian family by Henry Farny, noting that by that time their traditional lifestyle had been destroyed. It also looks at a book written in 1844 by George Catlin who spent significant time with Native Americans in the 1830s. No other sources are directly described in the document.
Ppp Railroad Needed
The document discusses communication problems in the American West and potential solutions. It notes various methods used such as steamboats, wagons pulled by oxen, and the Pony Express, along with related statistics. The railroad is mentioned as needed to address communication issues in the expanding western frontier.
W Homesteader Solution
The document discusses the settlement of the Great Plains region of the United States over time, with the first homesteaders arriving in the 1840s and more arriving in the 1860s-1870s and again in the 1890s, when Oklahoma became known as the "Sooner State". New farming technologies helped solve some of the challenges of farming on the Plains.
Ppp Homesteader Solution
The document lists problems faced by early plains farmers such as infertile soil, loneliness, extreme weather, plagues of insects, and a lack of clean water, medical care, education, and jobs. It then lists technological innovations like John Deere machines, Turkey Red Wheat, barbed wire, and windpumps as well as changes in methods such as raising wheat instead of maize and livestock on the high plains that helped solve these problems from the 1840s to 1890s.
Ppp Homesteaders Living
The Homestead Act of 1862 granted 160 acres of free land to families who built a house and lived on the land for 5 years. Later acts expanded the amount of land granted to 480 acres. The Desert Land Act of 1877 allowed people to purchase 160 acres if rainfall was insufficient. While the Homestead Act provided land for thousands of farmers, many found the land unsuitable for farming with tools and seeds from back east. Settlers often faced difficult conditions like lack of water, extreme weather, and crop failures.
Ppp Rise And Fall
The Beef Bonanza of the late 19th century in Texas came to an end due to a combination of overgrazing of the open range, severe winters, falling beef demand, the introduction of barbed wire fencing and land ownership changes, and technological advances like wind pumps that enabled farming in previously arid lands. As a result, the era of open cattle ranching gave way to smaller, fenced farms and ranches.
Ppp Source Exercises
This document discusses various aspects of cowboy culture including horsemanship, codes of honor, family life, homes, food, weapons, and bravery. It asks whose opinion of cowboys should be trusted, either those that are positive or negative, and makes comparisons between different opinions. The document seeks to understand the nature, origin and purpose of various sources that depict cowboys and asks questions to determine details about the sources such as who produced it, when it was produced, and where.
Ppp Cowboy Lifestyle
The life of a cowboy was difficult and dangerous, as they herded cattle over long distances and faced harsh weather conditions while living in remote areas away from family and friends. Cowboys spent their days riding horses and working with cattle, whether on long cattle drives moving herds hundreds of miles, rounding up cattle on vast ranch lands, or completing winter rounds.
Ppp Beef Bonanza 2
The "Beef Bonanza" was a period in the late 1860s when large-scale cattle drives moved millions of cattle from Texas to railheads in Kansas. This was made possible by trails like the Goodnight-Loving trail and the establishment of cow towns like Abilene, Kansas near the railheads. Challenges included shortages of water and grasslands for the cattle along the trails and conflicts with farmers and Native Americans. Key figures in the development of the cattle industry during this period included Charles Goodnight, Oliver Loving, Joseph McCoy, and John Illiff.
Ppp Brigham Young Great
Brigham Young was a leader of the Latter-day Saints who helped them migrate to the Salt Lake Valley in Utah. The document questions whether Brigham Young was a truly great leader by repeating the question multiple times and providing differing potential answers such as "GREAT!" and "Not so Great!". It does not provide a clear conclusion on Brigham Young's leadership abilities.
W Utah Settlement
Brigham Young enabled the Mormon community to survive through expanding agriculture, establishing industries, and encouraging self-sufficiency. He expanded the economy by developing irrigation systems, establishing cooperatives, promoting trade and manufacturing. Brigham Young ensured the Mormons lived by their own laws through establishing a theocratic government, developing a militia to protect the territory, and enforcing adherence to Mormon doctrines.
Ppp Great Leader
Brigham Young helped the Mormon community survive through difficult times by expanding the economy and ensuring they lived by their own laws, though he also left some problems behind.
Ppp Brigham Young
Brigham Young led the Mormons out of Illinois after Joseph Smith's death and established a new settlement in Utah. As their leader, he instituted a strict daily schedule for the Mormon pioneers that included mandatory prayers before and after travel. This schedule demonstrated Young's ability to efficiently organize and lead the Mormons during their difficult journey westward to find a new home, establishing him as a great leader.
Ppp Mormon Persecution
People feared the Mormons for several reasons related to their rapid growth, politics, and religious practices in the 1800s. As the Mormons grew in numbers and built a temple in Nauvoo, Illinois, they began facing concerns from the local non-Mormon population about their beliefs and influence. This tension eventually led to the Mormons being driven from Nauvoo and other areas due to conflicts over politics, polygamy, and the Mormons' pride and prosperity which made others feel threatened.
Ppp Mormon Introduction
The Mormons were a religious group in the 1800s who believed that Native Americans were descended from Israelites and that Jesus appeared to them after his resurrection. They practiced communal ownership of property and polygamy. Mormons faced persecution for their beliefs and political power of their leaders, so they migrated west led by Brigham Young to establish a "Holy City" free from persecution in what is now Utah.
