<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>This is a very interesting site, I enjoyed
much. But I was wondering if there is a similar site about the 1852
wagon trains? My grgrgrandparents Daniel and Cynthia Miller were on one of
the 1852 wagon trains from Missouri. Daniels brother John Miller was said
to be on the 1850 train. Anyone know about these
trains? Thanks Charlotte

the Cascade Range through Naches Pass, roughly from today's Bonney Lake in the
west to Yakima in the east. Later the name was applied to the route from Walla
Walla to Steilacoom, as an extension of the Oregon
Trail.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

Native American peoples to travel from one side of the mountains to the other,
for food and trade purposes. One of the earliest written accounts of the use
of this trail tells of the travel of a Lt. Johnson of the United States
Exploring Expedition (Wilkes Expedition), crossing on horseback, as the
Expedition explored the Pacific Northwest in 1841.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
