Midwest Pioneers, 1600s-1800s Those who traveled west in the early days of the United States did so for many different reasons. Some simply wanted a chance at adventure or the opportunity to own and cultivate their own land. Many of these early pioneers headed west to begin new lives with extended family, and once there, learn skills and trades in new career opportunities. Others migrated west with high hopes for finding a new home in which they could freely practice their religious beliefs, far from the discrimination and oppression of their original Eastern homes.
