BC & Pacific Northwest History Forum

Please see RE BC & Pacific Northwest History Forum re: Talk:List of United States military history events#Border Commission troops in the Pacific Northwest. If you think maybe I should also move some or copy some of my other stuff from NW history and BC history pages let me know; I never mean to blog, but I'm voluble and to me everything's interconnected; never meaning to dominate a page so have made this area to post my historical rambles on. Thoughts?Skookum1 03:49, 14 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Comment on my posting of this: if anyone has any questions or wants to debate any issues relating to Oregon Country/Columbia District/Pacific Northwest history/historical geography, please feel free to drop by the forum and start a thread/topic, or just butt in at yer leisure.Skookum1 05:50, 14 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Where's the rest of the article?

There is an 'origins' section, and that's it. An origins section implies to me that there is something more to follow and perhaps an 'aftermath' section. The main events of the 'wars' occurred in the 1850s, but are not touched upon. Very strange.

For instance: from the FA of 8/oct/2012: 'Due to conflicts with the Rogue River Indians, Major J. A. Lupton gathered 35 men from Jacksonville on October 8, 1855, and attacked the Native Americans near the mouth of Little Butte Creek, killing about 30 of them. Lupton was also killed, and eleven of his men were injured. On December 24 of the same year, Captain Miles Alcorn discovered and attacked a Native American camp on the north fork, killing eight. On Christmas the following day, another band of Native Americans were attacked near Little Butte Creek's mouth; some fled, while the rest were either captured or killed.'

No point copy pasting from one article to another, and I don't have access to any references, and know nothing about the topic, so I won't edit. Anyone else want to have a go?1812ahill (talk) 16:00, 8 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This article is certainly a work in progress, and much more remains to be written about the conflict. While you may not have easy access to any sources, you likely actually do through your local library, as almost all offer access to either books that cover the topic or access to online databases with articles. Plus, Google Books has a large collection of public domain history books that probably have some useful info to help fill in some of the missing info.
