Minnesota Newcomers
By Jillian D.
My five facts
This state is the fastest growing state. The first step to becoming a state was they ask the congress for governors, legislature, and a court of our own. The treaties made a big difference in Minnesota's population. Hans Mattson had wrote many articles and letters and speeches. That's also called a recruiter. On May 11,1858 we became the third-second state of the union.
Lots of land to love
St. Paul, because they built Fort Snelling which is a military base, Saint Paul also had a small village built for people to live in.
Hans Mattson
Hans mattson volunteered for the military, he also served as an officer third minnesota regiment until the end of the war
Fort Snelling
This is a military base that the newcomers built
Alexander Ramsey
first territorial governor, also did the treaties with the indians
Harriet Bishop
She was important because 1. she was a teacher giving education to children in a small school room.2. She also established a sunday school, helped make temprance groups, and women's orginization's.
Steam Boats
I think steam boats because the are making regular stop's in St. Paul. So they will get there faster for those people that are always going to St. Paul. And they have water across the east side of St. Paul.
Harriet Bishop Quote
I have known Minnesota from it's infancy, and have loved it as a parent does a child, till my very being is entwined with her interests; and to me it is fit for paradise. Come to Minnesota, but bring with you principles and unyielding.
