Finding a Sequence

The westward movement of Americans following the Civil War influenced Native American communities who were living west of the Mississippi River. You will explore a variety of documents to get a sense of the issues faced by Native Americans due to settlement and the U.S. Government’s Indian policy.

Closely examine each document and then place them in chronological order according to when they were created.
