I couldn't find anything before the CIVIL WAR, so I'm starting there. (I just though I should give you a little FYI, in case you were wanting info on the time before that. Thank you.) So, let us begin! .1857 -- Opponents of slavery set up a Republican Party. .1860 -- Abraham Lincoln is elected president, much to the dissapointment of most of the southerners. .1860-61 -- Eleven states recede from the US, and under the leadership of Jefferson Davis, begin a Civil War. .1865 -- Abraham Lincoln is assasinated. 'Yankees' win. .1867 -- Souix (pronounced 'sue') Indians battle and defeat US troops. Now I need to fast forward a bit because I had to get a number of different information sources, so I'm trying to put this together with what little resource I have. So please bear with me. .1954 -- Segrigation is beginning to break up in schools. .1960 -- JFK elected president. .1936 -- JFK assasinated.
