Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From its earliest settlement in the Vermillion River Valley, Vermillion and Clay County has long been a coveted region in the Dakota Territory. Once inhabited by Omaha and Ponca tribes, the area was later home to the Dakota Indians. After the Louisiana Purchase in 1803, President Thomas Jefferson sent the Lewis and Clark expedition to the area to survey the territory. In August of 1804, Lewis and Clark stood atop Spirit Mound and surveyed the beautiful landscape we know now as Clay County. Throughout the years, Native Americans, pioneers, frontiersman, farmers, and merchants have made Clay County home. Historic Vermillion and Clay County captures the history, development, and changing landscape of the area in almost 200 vintage images.

Book excerpt: You think you have seen true love and amazing grit and determination? Compare it to that of George Young and his fiancée, Marie Forbes, in the true-life saga of their adventures from 1909 through World War I on a South Dakota homestead. The young college couple invested in homesteads for money to get married and send George to medical college. They would live on their claims for fourteen months and make improvements. After proving up, they would sell for a profit. Two years of drought changed their plans and their lives. There was no market for their land. George had to learn to farm to make a living. A neighbor with agricultural college training and immigrant neighbors helped them cope. After ten difficult years and a delayed marriage, the Youngs sold out, realizing a substantial wartime profit on their investment. They moved, with their two children, to an 800-acre farm in a warmer climate, near a thriving town in Kansas. George was a successful farmer and cattle rancher. Marie brought music and delicious bread to their neighborhood gatherings. Like many early settlers, the Youngs chose to raise their family in a rural community and looked forward to new adventures on the land.

Download or read book Great Plains Homesteaders written by Richard Edwards and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2024-09 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Great Plains Homesteaders tells the epic story of how millions of people, white and Black, women and men, young and old, and of many different religions, languages, and ethnic groups, moved to the Great Plains to claim land. Most were poor, so the government’s offer of “free” farms through the Homestead Act of 1862 seemed a godsend. The settlers found harsh growing conditions and many perils—including exploitation by railroads and banks, droughts, prairie fires, and bitter winters—yet they persisted. The settlers successfully “proved up” nearly a million claims between the 1860s and the 1920s. They filled up the immense grassland, transforming it into productive farms, the beginning of the region’s agriculture. They also created a distinct culture that continues to shape their estimated fifty million descendants living today. Every homesteader’s experience was different, as particular and distinct as the people were themselves. Yet their collective story, with all its hardships and toil, its ambitions and setbacks, its fresh starts and failures and successes, is central to the American experience.
