The Black Hawk War

Black Hawk War of 1832

Sauk & Fox Settlers were eager to gain access to any and all land in IL. Treaty in 1804 gave land in Illinois to USA In 1829, the federal Govt. moved them across the Mississippi into Iowa. Most of the Indians complied with the order. Except Black Hawk

Rock River Valley Resistance Small group that lived in the Rock River valley refused to leave. In response, their homes were burned along with their crops. Without retaliation, they flee across the river to Iowa.

Failed Negotiations Black Hawk tried to argue that the forced removal and earlier treaties forcing the loss of land were illegal. No acceptance was given

Spring 1831 Black Hawk ordered whites off land in IL so they could plant their corn. The cabins of the settlers were burned Gov. Reynolds sent 2500 soldiers

As a result, he was forced to sign another treaty. He could never return to IL again Black Hawk then sought refuge in Iowa

Blackhawk went to Iowa in 1831 but was unable to plant crops Starts to plan an attack Tries to recruit Keokuk Keokuk warns that all who go will die Women and children included Outnumbered by USA

Iowa Attacked by the Sioux Suffered crop failures Experienced malnutrition Feared starvation Black Hawk returns to IL

Spring 1832 In order to better feed his people, Black Hawk returned to plant crops in IL. Settlers feared more attacks.

Famous Participants Abraham Lincoln became a Captain in the militia Lieutenant Robert Anderson was later in charge of Ft. Sumter Lieutenant Jefferson Davis Colonel Zachary Taylor Gen. Winfield Scott

Flag of Truce Black Hawk could not get IL Indians to help in the fight. BH sends a delegation under a flag of truce to avoid any fighting.

The delegation is fired at by the militia. BH was outnumbered 275 to 40 BH’s men attack causing the militia to run killing 12 men.

Indian Creek Massacre Potawatomi Indians attack Cabins are burned 16 killed and 2 girls are kidnapped This caused an army of 4,000 to chase the Indians into Wisconsin.
