Subject: MtMan-List: funny link!

Hi all,
  I found this site last night.  It is very funny but, you have to have a
sound card.  It is:  http://www.hampsterdance.com
I hope you all have a good day. There's another thing, I just started new
classes Thursday(yes I'm a High School student) and in my first class, AP US
History(a college course), we were having a disscussion on why Europeans
came to the Americas.  I said that they some of them came for furs and they
all laughed even though I know it's absolutly true.  How can I make them see
the light?

with documentation... the only way to prove to a skeptic...

by and large, though the primary reasons that Europeans came to this
country were either for religious freedom or economic reasons.
I think that is the point your teacher was making, the majority, not the
minority.

If you look the first settlements in the northeast were religion based, in
the south, ecoomic
based... or they were crown colonies. [Mobile, new orleans, charlestowne -
st. augustine]

ps...please to note, I am refering to the original colonies...not the later
emigrations, like say
post Culloden, or the Irish famines... I am refering to pre 1750.
Okay, I know the date for Culloden, but I am still not talking about that
particular group.
grins....

was not Montreal de Quebec a initally a crown colony as well, I forget...
souther history is more my realm, that and southern architecture actually.

Subject: Re: MtMan-List: Fort Union Trading Post

Hello to this list.  Does anyone have the traders list for Fort Union 1828
or 1836?  I am particularly interested in these 2 periods of time for Fort
Union Trading Post.

I am on another list but it is limited to Muzzleloading and is not set up to
handle related conversation on topical conversations such as Fort
Union-1828.  I have already gotten in trouble talking about the buffalo but
this list rules seem to permit me to explore this.

I am aware of the webpages regarding Fort Union and I have recently returned
from Fort Union where I examined beads that came out of the ground when they
were rebuilding Fort Union on the actual location.

I am thankful for any help I receive.  Glad to find this campfire and hope
it shed a little light my way.

They are different people.  I had the same confusion when I started my
research years ago.
Robert Campble of the Sublette and Campbell Co. centered his activity in the
Rocky Mountains, Sante Fe, and St. Louis.

Hi,,
    Congratulations on getting into the AP History class.  I teach American
History in a local college and really feel fortunate when students have a
good background in American History.
    Also, you are correct about Europeans coming for furs.  In both my
Masters In History and my PhD in American Studies I researched this in great
depth.  Among the findings were:
    1.  The French primarily came for this reason.
    2.  But, the others (except Spain) used furs as a supplement to their
attempt to make money from the new world.
    3.  You will soon study the Navigation Acts of England in Colonial
America.  One of the major restrictions was on "hats."  Colonials were not
allowed to have a hat industry.  The "best" hats were made of beaver.  The
term "high hat" applied to an aristocrat comes from the tall hats which, of
course, needed more beaver fur and thus cost much more.  The restrictions
meant that there was a great demand for fur in England.  This is proof of the
value of the fur trade and the demand in Europe.
    4.  Also, the Leipzig Fur markets during the Colonial period demanded
much fur and encouraged those in the New World to harvest furs of all kinds.
    I hope this helps your classmates understand that you really are correct.
    Good luck.

        Stephen Huss, Ph.D.

Yes Walt, your coming in loud and clear. Haven't got the specific info. your
looking for, but I did get a chance to stop in at Ft. Union this summer and
look around. Neat place they say that at one time this was the largest
operating Ft. there was. Even bigger than Bent's. Your looking for the
traders list for 1828? Isn't that the year the fort was built?
