Humane and Considerate Attention
-
Description
-
The removal of Native Americans from Missouri became a significant issue shortly after the territory was granted statehood in 1820. Missourians were eager for fertile farmland, particularly the Platte River area, which had not been included in the original boundaries of the state but was instead intended for Native Americans. Politically active and determined Missourians went about obtaining the land "through force, coercion, and treaty," using a combination of federal, state, and local legislation. The Platte River area was officially declared part of Missouri in 1837, and virtually all Native Americans had left the state by 1840.
