Illinois History From Rivers to Northwest Territory
A compact historical overview traces Illinois from Marquette and Joliet’s voyage down a Mississippi tributary to the Illinois River, through Glacial ages, mound builders, the French era with Fort Creve coeur, Kaskaskia and Cahokia, French control and English takeover, and eventual U.S. acquisition via the Northwest Territory after Clark’s expedition. It notes La Salle’s early visit, the 1717 annexation to Louisiana, Fort Chartres, Paris treaty outcomes, and the eventual cession to the United States in 1783. The narrative covers colonial shifts, Native nations, and territorial evolution up to statehood terms.
