Publisher's Synopsis
""History Of The Wyandott Mission At Upper Sandusky, Ohio, Under The Direction Of The Methodist Episcopal Church"" is a book written by James B. Finley in 1840. The book provides a comprehensive account of the establishment and development of the Wyandott Mission in Upper Sandusky, Ohio, under the guidance of the Methodist Episcopal Church. The Wyandott Mission was established in the early 19th century to provide religious and educational services to the Wyandott Native American tribe, who had been forcibly relocated to Ohio from their ancestral lands in the Great Lakes region. The book traces the history of the mission from its inception to its eventual closure in the mid-1830s, following the forced removal of the Wyandott tribe to Indian Territory (present-day Oklahoma). Finley provides detailed descriptions of the missionaries who worked at the mission, as well as the challenges they faced in their efforts to convert and educate the Wyandott people. He also provides insights into the daily life of the Wyandott tribe and their interactions with the missionaries and the broader community.Overall, ""History Of The Wyandott Mission At Upper Sandusky, Ohio, Under The Direction Of The Methodist Episcopal Church"" is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the complex relationships between Native American tribes and Christian missionaries in the early years of the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
