1 ene 1843 año - Over 100 Wyandot's die of disease

Descripción:

Over 100 Wyandot's die of disease as they arrived weary and unsheltered and un prepared for winter residing in what is now called the west bottoms. The graves of the victims are the first to be buried in the Huron Cemetery in what is now Kansas City, Kansas.

Illness (possibly typhoid) struck while the Wyandots were still camped along the Missouri River. Between 60-100 of their number died. Their bodies were carried across the river to a high ridge which overlooked the Kansas and Missouri Rivers. Huron cemetery is established.(WNK)
