The influx of settlers in Minnesota in the 1850's was the result of the
Traverse des Sioux and Mendota treaties, signed 1851.

Thanks Shawne,

Thanks for your information and the great website. I am going to google
"homestead" ond read up on it, so I can understand more. That must be why
none of my ancestors land was purchased any earlier than that, even though
they were in Minnesota at least five years before then.
