The War of 1812 was a conflict between the United States and Great Britain, lasting from 1812 to 1815. It was primarily fueled by issues such as trade restrictions due to Britain's ongoing war with France, impressment of American sailors into the British Navy, and British support of Native American tribes against American expansion. The war ended with the Treaty of Ghent, restoring pre-war boundaries but resolving few of the initial disputes.From the 1840s through the 1880s, thousands trekked westward, carrying only a few belonging and supplies for the journey, and settling on the western frontier, forever changing the American West. 1843 - The Christmas card is invented (Sir Henry Cole and John Callcott Horsley, England)Artificial Freezer Patented (Nancy M.

Inscription:
"With clear good sense, strong love of justice, and a resolute will, her vivacity and cheerfulness carried the spirit of youth into old age. Sympathizing with every detail of human life, she knew no superiors and no inferiors. But honoring all men, asked of others her own faithful performance of every duty and relieved the years of pain and infirmity by devoting them to helping the poor, the friendless, the ignorant, and the sinful."
