Early Explorers and Expeditions 1830s and Beyond Claiming The Farm Early Explorers and Expeditions The emigrants of the 1840s were not the first to travel the Oregon Trail. The colorful history of our country makes heroes out of the explorers, mountain men, soldiers, and scientists who opened up the West. The Pacific Northwest was the focus of a contest between the United States and Great Britain, which began at the end of the eighteenth century. Exploration by Lewis and Clark (1805-1806) and Britain's David Thompson (1811) publicized the abundance of fur in the area. In 1811, New York financier John Jacob Astor established Fort Astoria at the mouth of the Columbia River as the anchor for a chain of Pacific Fur Company trading posts along the river. The War of 1812 caused the British to gain control of the posts as well as Fort Astoria. Competition between the two countries for the fur trade continued during the 1820s and 1830s. The British Hudson's Bay Company dominated the region. John McLoughlin, who was appointed the Company's Chief Factor of the Columbia District, built Fort Vancouver in 1825. From his headquarters at the fort, McLouglin controlled an area of 670,000 square miles. Simultaneously, however, American interest in Oregon was increasing as the region came to be perceived as a place of cheap, fertile land, an alternative to the rapidly filling lands of the Midwest.

The Oregon Trail Author Info: Francis Parkman On April 28, 1846, Francis Parkman, who had already decided that he was going to write the history of the settling of America, and Quincy Adams Shaw set forth from St. Louis up the Missouri River for a "tour of curiosity and amusement to the Rocky Mountains." They traveled some 1700 miles, meeting trappers, gamblers, woodsmen, soldiers and Indians and Parkman eventually spent three weeks hunting buffalo with a band of Oglala Sioux. The following year he published this travelogue which remains one of the great books ever produced by an American and embarked him on a career as one of Americaís first great historians.

The Magnificent Oregon Trail Among the 16 books we offer here that concern the Oregon Trail, foremost for researchers are the direct transcriptions of six original diaries of pioneers who sought new homes and lives in the west. Editor Bert Webber did not change anything, but only inserts parenthetical clarifications where needed. To better see what the diarists were writing about, photographs of prime geological sites the pioneers mention have been added. Each diary is provided with a map, bibliography, index and some have genealogies. Three diaries by women, three by men. (The Beeson diary is especially interesting: written by a teenager getting ready for the trip, the trip itself, and then getting settled in Oregon. The "getting ready" is seldom found in overland diaries, thus making Beeson a unique and significant find.) The Oregon Trail Diary of Twin Sisters The unabridged Diary with Introduction and Contemporary comments by Bert Webber Twin sisters, with their husbands, set out to seek new lives in Oregon. In keeping their overland diary, the sisters took turns, at odd intervals, with the writing. Uniqueness of this diary is that it was written by twins and in our printing, every time the writer changes we announce the name of the writer and use a different type style. 86p. 5½x8½. Pictures

The Topic: Oregon Trail Easier - The Oregon Trail was the best land route for travel to the western United States. It was the only practical way for settlers in wagons with their tools, livestock, and supplies to cross the mountains. Many believe that without the trail, most of the American west would today be part of Canada or Mexico. For twenty-five years, 1841-1866, people 'pulled-up-stakes' and headed west. Estimates range from 250,000 to 650,000 persons made the trip. About 1/3 immigrated to Oregon, another 1/3 were bound for California, and 1/3 went to Utah, Colorado, and Montana. Harder - The Oregon Trail, the longest of the overland routes used in the westward expansion of the United States, was first traced by explorers and fur traders. Settlers began following the trail in 1841. The first large group of about 900 immigrants used the trail in the "Great Migration" of 1843. In that year, a provisional government was organized in Oregon. The Oregon Country's northern boundary was set in 1846, and the Territory of Oregon was formed in 1848 as over 12,000 people made the journey in that decade.

OREGON HISTORY h o m e e - m a i l Here is a short version of Oregon History. For a more detailed look at Oregon's past, Oregon History Narrative offers much additional information. Oregon County Map Oregon Topographical County Map Oregon Highway Map Indians came to Oregon at least 10,000 years ago and included the BANNOCK, CHINOOK, KLAMATH, MODOC, and NEZ PERCE tribes. The Indians changed the landscape drastically in many areas, burning the forests and grasslands in order to attract game. The coast Indians had the most stable economy, depending heavily on abundant salmon, various shellfish, seals, and an occasional stranded whale. Tribes in the interior were hunters and gatherers. The first European fur traders, even before Lewis and Clark, were welcomed by the Indians for the trinkets,tools, guns, and whiskey they provided; but the Indians resented the arrival of perm anent settlers, and many battles were fought before the Indians were subdued and placed on reservations. Many ships touched the Oregon coast in the late 1700s and early 1800s, but these contacts provided little information about the interior. From 1805 to 1806, Meriwether Lewis and William Clark made the first land exploration to the Northwest Territory. Although they visited only the Columbia River and a small part of the northwestern coast, they gleaned much information about the remainder of the state from friendly Indians. Their report created much excitement in the eastern United States, including the halls of Congress, and among fur traders who had previously trapped and traded in the Rocky Mountain region. Americans began to think of taking possession of this distant land, and Great Britain was also interested. In 1811, Astoria was founded as a fur-trading station by John Jacob Astor's American Fur Company, and the Hudson's Bay Company soon began to trap and trade in the area.

For the past 16 years, OCTA has been at the very forefront of researching, preserving, marking and publicizing the trails. Their efforts have led to the discovery of countless visible trail remnants. They have battled and sought compromises with those who planned projects that would have disturbed or destroyed trail ruts. OCTA has supported and lobbied for legislation which has furthered the cause of trail preservation and public awareness. They have encouraged trail scholarship to broaden our understanding and appreciation of the overland trails experience and its impact on American History. John Mark Lambertson Director, National Frontier Trails Center Trails Head makes it possible for Kansas City's rich history to live on ... their educational efforts teach us about our history and what makes us unique.

Oregon Trail From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. For other uses of the term, see Oregon Trail (disambiguation) The route of the Oregon Trail is shown in red in the western United States The Oregon Trail was one of the key overland migration routes on which pioneers traveled across the North American continent in wagons in order to settle new parts of the United States of America during the 19th Century . The Oregon Trail helped the United States implement its cultural goal of Manifest Destiny , that is to build a great nation spanning the North American continent. The Oregon Trail spanned over half the continent as the wagon trail proceeded over 2,000 miles west through territories and land later to become six U.S. states Missouri Kansas Nebraska ... Idaho , and Oregon ). Between and , the Oregon Trail delivered settlers to the Northwest and West Coast areas of what is now the United States.

What books would you recommend on the Oregon Trail Where can I find the list of all the pioneers Migration over the Oregon Trail involved a huge number of people, moving to different locations for different reasons. In a free society, emigrants were not required to sign a roster to leave, or to present a passport at borders, or sign in anyplace upon arrival. There is no comprehensive list of all the pioneers. A few organized wagon trains had rosters of members, but frequently these only included adult males. Some locations along the trail, such at Fort Kearney, Fort Laramie, and Fort Henrietta, kept registers where some wagon train members voluntarily signed. Most of the available lists of pioneers have been compiled by historical societies and genealogical organizations by soliciting information from pioneer descendants, and combing historical documents such as journals, letters and pioneer society records for names. Names have been recorded from Independence Rock and other "register rock" locations along the trail route. Currently, the OCTA Census of Overland Emigrant Documents can run a name search through their data base of over 48,000 names, and the Oregon Genealogical Society and Idaho Genealogical Society can locate names from their Pioneer Certificate programs.
