timber.
Fur Trade
Beaver pelts were famous for the oil in their
fur. Native Americans traded their pelts for
metal weapons.
Native Enemies
Native Americans got angry as the settlers started taking over their land which caused wars
and disagreements.
Scots-Irish
The Scots-Irish lived on the frontier because they were used to the conditions such
as getting their own food and making their own clothes.
Pioneers
The pioneers had to be tough to live on the frontier because they
had to do everything on their own. They were not close to any kind of
society so everything was handmade.
French
The French explorers were seeking a
northwest passage to China. In the wilderness they were trying to find
riches and furs.
Appalachian Mountains
The Appalachian Mountains made it harder
for settlers to travel through the backcountry. They were like a border
line for the frontier.
Conestoga Wagons
The Conestoga wagon is a heavy vehicle that carries freight which
was founded in the region of Pennsylvania in 1725. Farmers
used the wagons to carry big loads of products long distances.
Presbyterians
Presbyterians believe that God comes to us with grace and love in
the person of Jesus Christ who lived, died, and rose for us so that
we might have eternal life.
Daniel Boone
Daniel Boone was born in November of 1734 in a log cabin near Reading, Pennsylvania. He spent most of his life exploring the American frontier.
