In
the 19th century Americans wanted more land, and settlement moved
west. As white settlers satisfied a thirst for land, countless American
Indians faced the end of a traditional way of life. Shawnee Mission
was one of many established as a manual training school attended
by boys and girls (like Sallie Bluejacket, pictured at left) from
Shawnee, Delaware, and other Indian nations from 1839 to 1862. Visit
this 12-acre National Historic Landmark and learn the stories of
those who lived there.
