Summer Lead d Mining<br />
Many women moved<br />
north, near present-day<br />
Galena, IL, to mine lead.<br />
Since the 1700’s, lead<br />
mining had become an<br />
important part of Sauk<br />
and Mesquakie<br />
economics. Much of the<br />
lead would be traded to<br />
white traders. White<br />
settlers would later<br />
claim the lead country.
