Indian Removal in Kansas
from A Kansas Memory: The Kansas Historical Society Library and Archives Podcast Hosted by Lin Fredericksen
Before statehood, Kansas was part of the original "Indian Territory" located west of the Mississippi River. This land was intended to be the permanent home for Indian tribes that were removed from the eastern United States to open land for white settlements. Hear accounts of what happened from the correspondence of William Clark, the U. S. Superintendent of Indian Affairs in St. Louis, from 1807 up to his death in 1838.
