| Description |
It was back on May 20, 1862, that President Abraham Lincoln signed the Homestead Act. This action opened millions of acres of undeveloped Federal land to settlers looking west. Many of these new homesteaders soon found themselves on the trail to Oregon. Check out an interview about Homesteading with the Oregon Trail Museum: bit.ly/Kp1fRh And for more about Homesteading, please visit www.blm.gov/or/landsrealty/homestead150. |
