UC history students map out Wyandot removal trail

December 12, 2024

Director of Public History Rebecca Wingo’s work with the Wyandot Nation began with a misleading historical marker. Wingo was working on learning more about Native American history in preparation for an undergraduate Native American History course when she came upon a historical marker about the Wyandot tribe in Sandusky, Ohio. “The Wyandot were the last tribe removed from the state of Ohio in 1843,” Wingo says. “But the historic marker says the ‘departure’ of the Wyandot, and that they went on a one week ‘journey’ to Cincinnati, where they boarded steamboats and headed out to Kansas City which, at the time, was called Wyandotte City because they owned it. I thought that was a really terrible historic marker, so I contacted the cultural division of Wyandot nation.”
