Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cottman's History Pamphlets, 1905: The First Thoroughfares of Indiana; The National Road One of the earliest wagon-ways out of Indianapolis, the old Centerville road, which led to Wayne county before the coming of the National Road, was laid out on the Whitewater trail above referred to, just south of the Pennsylvania tracks, and mention may be found here and there of other roads that were similarly determined. Moreover, the earliest pioneers were benefited directly by these aboriginal trails, for not only did they first follow them from one place to another through the otherwise trackless wilderness in search of desirable regions, but their rude traces for subsequent ingress and egress were frequently but their improvement on the red man's too-narrow footpath. Perhaps it is not venturing [too much to say that they were at times an influence in the locating of white settle ments. For instance, the first settlers on the spot where Indi anapolis now stands were, if tradition 1s to be trusted, led hither by the Whitewater trail. When the commissioners appointed by the legislature came to locate the capital, the presence of the squatters at' the mouth of Fall creek was undoubtedly a factor in determining the choice of that spot; and so it might not be considering too curiously to reason out a relation between this obscure path through the forest primeval and the exact locating of the State's capital with all that that implies.

Download or read book Indiana s Historic National Road written by Alan E. Hunter and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2011 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Indiana National Road Association works to preserve, protect, and promote the Historic National Road. This byway is designated an All-American Road through the National Scenic Byways program and traverses six states from Baltimore, Maryland, to East St. Louis, Illinois. The road began as a primary route west for pioneers, and today the byway allows travelers to explore the American past--it is truly "the road that built the nation." This volume continues the story that began on the eastern leg of Indiana's Historic National Road, inviting readers to complete their photographic journey westward from Indianapolis to Terre Haute. These images document the people and stories that are part of the National Road's heritage, and it is hoped this book will encourage advocacy for the protection of important heritage resources.

This book was released on 2017-12-06 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Us 12 Scenic Road Feasibility Study; Draft, September 1990: Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore, Indiana The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility of establishing a parkway or scenic roadway managed by the National Park Service using the existing US 12 highway corridor and portions of other existing roads in the national Iakeshore area. The existing US 12 corridor does not qualify as a national parkway for two reasons the corridor does not have sufficient merit and character to make it a national attraction, and there are many uncontrolled highway access points. Portions of the corridor clearly have high quality scenic views as well as historical significance. The corridor is more a connecting route between recreational, historic, and natural areas than it is a destination by itself. However, according to criteria that have been adopted by many states, including Indiana, the US 12 corridor does qualify as a scenic road. These criteria include.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Party Politics in Indiana During the Civil War It is a sad truth that Indiana is the most proslavery of all the Northern States it Our people hate the negro with a perfect if not a supreme hatred The proposal to repeal the Missouri compromise excited less opposition in Indiana than in any other free State. Some of the Whigs and Democrats denounced it, but their zeal for freedom seemed more a matter of geography than of conscience. In the campaign of 1856 the territory south of the National Road was forbidden ground to antislavery speakers.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Daviess County Lincoln Highway Association's Brief in Support of the Lincoln Route Through Daviess County, Indiana: Presented to the Indiana Lincoln Highway Commission First. The road We do not think, in View of the indisputable facts relative to the existence of the road, of Reeder's Ferry and of the long-continued use of Apraw Ford for possibly a century before 1830, that we need! To spend any time in argument on this branch of the subject, only to say to the commission that we are ready and able to point out the exact course of the road for almost every foot of the way. A few changes have been made in the Portersville road since Abraham Lin coln drove his yoke of oxen over it in March, 1830, but we can show where these changes have been made With the exception of only a few short distances, where the soil gives no evidence at this time of its use as a road.
