The Seminole Wars

The Seminole Indians of Florida were unique among the southeastern tribes in their protracted and bitter resistance to the removal policies of the federal government during the 19th century. In three Seminole wars, spread over half a century between 1814 and 1858, the Seminole Indians fought fiercely against invading United States forces and were the only tribe who did not sign a treaty of surrender. This banner exhibition includes photographs of prints and paintings from the Museum's collection that depict the major events and Seminole leaders of the three wars in a timeline format.
