Native Americans in Illinois in 1818: Treaties and Treachery in the Path to Statehood

Dr. Michael Wiant, Historian and Retired Director, Illinois State Museum & Dickson Mounds Museum

Illinois' path to statehood was complex and significantly shaped by treaties with Native American tribes. At the time, Illinois was a sparsely populated territory, home to a mix of Native Americans, European settlers, and African American communities—both free and enslaved. Dr. Wiant will discuss the events and treaties that displaced tribes from the Illinois territory, leading to the eventual removal of tribes to reservations west of the Mississippi River.
