21. Sacagawea, Bird Woman Short history of Sacagawea, the Shoshone Indian woman who lead the lewis and clark expedition to the Pacific Ocean as a guide and interpreter. http://www.impurplehawk.com/sacagawea.html

Sacagawea Statue Bismarck, ND ~ SACAGAWEA ~ Shoshone Indian "Bird Woman" Let me start this by saying how astonished I was that so much money was put into a marketing campaign when the new dollar coin came out. It was amusing to see President George Washingtion's paper head on a body doing some really neat things. I especially liked the one where he was driving the Lincoln. But, the campaign was on Washington retiring! Not a word was mentioned about who was on the new coin. As my friend and mentor Rico said to me, "The children out there still think that Pontiac is just a car!" So for our children, and to all interested people, here is the story of Sacagawea, pronounced Sa-ca-ja way, also know as Bird Woman.  In 1800, when she was about 12 years old, Sacagawea was kidnapped by a war party of Hidatsa Indians, enemies of her people, the Shoshones. She was taken from her Rocky Mountain homeland, located in today’s Idaho, to the Hidatsa-Mandan villages near modern Bismarck, North Dakota. There, she was later sold as a slave to Toussaint Charbonneau, a French-Canadian fur trader, and interpreter, who claimed her as his wife. In November 1804, the Corps of Discovery arrived at the Hidatsa-Mandan villages and soon built a fort nearby. In the American Fort Mandan on February 11, 1805, Sacagawea gave birth to her son Jean-Baptiste Charbonneau, who would soon become America’s youngest explorer.  The Shoshones possessed horses that the expedition needed to cross the Bitterroot Mountains. The captains felt that because of her Shoshone heritage, Sacagawea could be important in trading for horses when the Corps reached the western mountains and the Shoshones. While Sacagawea did not speak English, she spoke Shoshone and Hidatsa. Her husband Charbonneau spoke Hidatsa and French. In effect, Sacagawea and Charbonneau would become an intepreter team. As Clark explained in his journals, Charbonneau was hired "as an interpreter through his wife." If and when the expedition met the Shoshones, Sacagawea would talk with them, then translate to Hidatsa for Charbonneau, who would translate to French. The parties’ Francois Labiche spoke French and English, and would make the final translation so that the two English-speaking captains would understand.

LEWIS AND CLARK EXPEDITION. Little was known about western America when the Lewis and Clark Expedition set out in 1804. Twelve years earlier Captain Robert Gray, an American navigator, had sailed up the mouth of the great river he named the Columbia. Traders and trappers reported that the source of the Missouri River was in the mountains in the Far West. No one, however, had yet blazed an overland trail. President Thomas Jefferson was interested in knowing more about the country west of the Mississippi. In 1803, two years after he became president, he asked Congress for $2,500 for an expedition. To head the expedition, Jefferson chose his young secretary, captain Meriwether Lewis . Lewis invited his friend lieutenant William Clark to share the leadership. Both were familiar with the frontier and with Indians through their service in the army. Before Lewis and Clark set out, word came that Napoleon had sold an immense tract of land to the United States. The expedition would therefore be exploring American territory. Plans for the expedition were carefully laid. The party was to ascend the Missouri to its source, cross the

In May, 1804, Meriwether Lewis and William Clark set out on an amazing expedition across the Louisiana Territory. It has been nearly 200 years since then, and the bicentennial of their historic journey is rapidly approaching. These true American heroes faced unknown people, harsh conditions and unexplored lands to secure a place in history as two of the world's greatest explorers. One of the expedition's stops along the way was near present-day Yankton, South Dakota, and the Yankton Area Chamber of Commerce along with the Yankton Daily Press and Dakotan has put together this site to celebrate Yankton's place in history as well as sites along the rest of the Lewis and Clark Trail.

Some tips for navigating this website Nearly 200 years ago, Meriwether Lewis, William Clark and their 'Corps of Discovery' departed on an epic journey across the interior of the United States seeking a water passage to the Pacific Ocean. Meriwether Lewis William Clark Inspired by "Undaunted Courage", two modern day explorers are retracing the trail of the original expedition by bicycle. Rex Garrelts (Capt. Lew) Mark Viets (Capt. Bill) Rex (Captain Lew) and Mark (Captain Bill) by day an engineer and architect respectively, are the self appointed captains. Possessing none of the conveniences of the original expedition (water craft, sextant, rifles, blue beads), the captains have made do with mapping software, touring bicycles, water bottles, and raw guts. We have decided that the only way to traverse the entire 4,000 mile Trail (short of quitting our jobs or calling in sick for a long time) is through a series of short (3-5 day) "Trips". The logistics are manageable within 300 miles of our Kansas City home base, but will become much more complex beyond that.

The "Corps of Discovery" departed Camp River Dubois , near Wood River, Illinois, on May 14, 1804 and proceeded up the Missouri River using a keelboat and two "pirogues". After several councils with the Indian Tribes of the lower Missouri River and the unfortunate death of Sergeant Floyd near present Sioux City, Iowa, the party reached the Knife River Indian Villages, near present Washburn, North Dakota. There they built Fort Mandan and spent a productive winter gathering information about the Indian tribes and lands to the west. They also recruited as interpreters, the Frenchman Toussaint Charbonneau and his Shoshoni wife, Sacagawea.

The Expedition Begins In 1804 a hopeful Thomas Jefferson sent Captains Meriwether Lewis and William Clark to find the fabled River of the West. From the time of Columbus, explorers and statesmen had dreamed of a Northwest Passage, an all-water route connecting the trade routes of the Pacific to the Old World of the Atlantic. As president of a still-young nation, Jefferson had pressed for the Louisiana Purchase to strengthen American trade and settlement. The final $15 million-dollar agreement with France doubled America's size overnight. On April 25, 1805, the Corps of Discovery camped by the riverside near the future site of Fort Union. Lewis and Clark hoped they were only weeks away from the Pacific via an all-water route, the mythical Northwest Passage. The group rested and celebrated their arrival at the confluence of the Yellowstone and Missouri rivers. The expedition journals noted the spot's potential as a trade location between two navigable rivers, the early highways of commerce. Entering what would be Montana led the expedition into the land of the Blackfeet. Their first contact with this tribe had been less than promising. The Northwest Passage was not Jefferson's only priority. In fact, of the tasks assigned them, Lewis and Clark accomplished the most within the modern borders of Montana. Contact and negotiations with native tribes, the reconnaissance of suitable sites for trading posts and forts, and scientific accounts of the land's plants, animals, and scenic resources were all in keeping with Jefferson's hopes for the expedition.

37. LCArchive.org: Firearms Of The Lewis And Clark Expedition Perhaps the most important items carried by the members of the lewis clark Expeditionon their journey to the Pacific Ocean and back were their firearms. http://www.lcarchive.org/firearms.html

A portion of Lewis' List of Requirements, circa June 1803. Flintlock Rifle Debate It has long been believed that the Armory at Harpers Ferry manufactured at least 15 of the .54 caliber U.S. Model 1803 flintlock rifles, or their prototypes, especially for Meriwether Lewis and the Corps of Discovery. However, some recent evidence questions this assumption. A very well researched article by Frank Tait proposes that the Harpers Ferry armory did not create whole rifles until well after Meriwether Lewis had left the vicinity. In Lewis' earlier army career, he had served under General Anthony Wayne. Wayne's corps of riflemen used rifles created as the result of a special contract of 1792. Almost 3,500 of these rifles, of .45 to .47 caliber, were created in two procurements of 1792 and 1794 . There were hundreds of these rifles stored at the Schulykill Arsenal in Philadelphia in 1803. Tait proposes that Lewis would have picked 15 of the best of these and had the Harpers Ferry armory "tune" them. It does seem likely that the Corps of Discovery did not carry the U.S. Model 1803 as we now know it, but opinions disagree. Some believe that Meriwether Lewis acquired a prototype or precursor of the U.S. Model 1803 (see
