What was the Fort Mims massacre in 1813?

In the midst of the War of 1812, the US faced another danger in what was then the Southwestern part of the US. The Native Upper Creek tribe were in an uprising against US settlers in Alabama, near Mobile, Alabama. The tribe attacked Fort Mins and killed 250 settlers. It was called a massacre in that the Natives killed, tortured, and scalped men, women and children. This was contrary to the Native leader Red Eagle who wanted no atrocities, but he was not successful. Future US president, Andrew Jackson, rallied American militias and ended the Creek uprising by 1814.


How did the US's transcontinental railroad affect the relations with Native American groups?

Occasionally the Native Indians would "harass" the railroad. The livestock would be shot at, stations terrorized, and work crews could be shot at. Twice Indians sabotaged the rails and also a Cheyenne raiding party tried to derail a train, killing g all the crewmen apart from one, who was scalped. Another tribe called Sioux tried and killed two crewmen. However one tribe, the Pawnee Indians, welcomed the train, protected it from the Sioux, and allowed a railroad to run on their land. In return they were given work on the trains.
