jan 8, 1843 - Additional Land Opened to European Settlement

Description:

Additional land was opened to European settlement, and Native American Indians were forced farther and farther west. With this purchase, a line of demarcation was established between Indian land and land open for settlement. It was called the "Red Rock Line" and extended from the Neutral Ground to the Missouri border running through Marion, Lucas and Wayne counties.
