Question 2: What trials and tribulations does Nelson describe encountering.
mezya [45]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Unfortunately, you did include context or reference to know what you are talking about. You write the name "Nelson." Nelson who? In what context?  At what time? In what part of US history? Which events?

You need to include the proper contexts and references to better help you.

Trying to be of help we are going to assume that you are talking about George Nelson and his relationship to the fur trade in colonial American times. If that is teh case, then we can comment on the following.

George Nelson was born in Quebec, in 1798 after his parents relocated during the American Revolutionary War.

The trials and tribulations that Nelson describes were the ones presented in the fur trade when he worked for the "XY Company" in 1802. He was in charge of a fur trade outpost in the Northern Michigan Territory(modern-day Wisconsin). He was very young, he was 16 years old, and his inexperience created many conflicts buy his intelligence was an asset for the company.

Later in his life, we worked for the North West Company and the Hudson Bay Company. During his work life as a clerk in these companies, he kept the journals of the daily events. Today, the importance of these documents is that the journals describe the life and trade during those interesting times in North America.

Were the Edwards brothers wrong with how they handled the issue of land grants in the eastern Texas region they were supposed to
max2010maxim [7]

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

<u><em>The Fredonian Rebellion was a dispute between the Mexican government and the Edwards brothers, Haden and Benjamin.qqv Haden Edwards received his empresarial grant on April 14, 1825. It entitled him to settle as many as 800 families in a broad area around Nacogdoches in eastern Texas. Like all empresarios he was to uphold land grants certified by the Spanish and Mexican governments, provide an organization for the protection of all colonists in the area, and receive a land commissioner appointed by the Mexican government. He arrived in Nacogdoches on September 25, 1825, and posted notices on street corners to all previous landowners that they would have to present evidence of their claims or forfeit to new settlers. This naturally offended the older settlers. </em></u>

<u><em> </em></u>

<u><em></em></u>

<u><em>As soon as Mexican authorities heard of the incident, Lt. Col. Mateo Ahumada, principal military commander in Texas, was ordered to the area. He left San Antonio on December 11 with twenty dragoons and 110 infantrymen. It was clear to Haden Edwards that his only chance to make good the time and estimated $50,000 he had already expended on his colony was to separate from Mexico. He and Parmer began preparations to meet the Mexican force in the name of an independent republic they called Fredonia. Since they planned to include the Cherokees in their move for independence, the flag they designed had two parallel bars, red and white, symbolizing Indian and white. In fact, although a treaty was signed with the Indian leaders, Richard Fields and John Dunn Hunter,qqv that support never materialized. The flag was inscribed "Independence, Liberty, Justice." The rebels signed it and flew it over the Old Stone Fort.qv Their Declaration of Independence was signed on December 21, 1826. </em></u>
