The Black Hawk Purchase, also known as the Forty-Mile Strip or Scott's Purchase, extended along the West side of the Mississippi River from the north boundary of Missouri North to the Upper Iowa River in the northeast corner of Iowa. It was fifty miles wide at the ends, and forty in the middle, and is sometimes called the "Forty-Mile Strip". The land, originally owned by the Sauk, Meskwaki (Fox), and Ho-Chunk (Winnebago) Native American people, was acquired by treaty following their defeat by the United States in the Black Hawk War. After being defeated the Sauk and Mesquakie were forced to relinquish another 2.5 million hectares or (6 million acres) and give up their rights to plant, hunt, or fish on the land.

  • The Black Hawk Purchase, also known as the Forty-Mile Strip or Scott's Purchase, extended along the West side of the Mississippi River from the north boundary of Missouri North to the Upper Iowa River in the northeast corner of Iowa. It was fifty miles wide at the ends, and forty in the middle, and is sometimes called the "Forty-Mile Strip".

The purchase was made for $640,000 on September 21, 1832 and was named for the chief Black Hawk, who was held prisoner at the time the purchase was completed. The Black Hawk Purchase contained an area of 6 million acres (24,000 km²), and the price was equivalent to 11 cents/acre ($26 per km²). The region is bounded on the East by the Mississippi River and includes Dubuque, Fort Madison, and present-day Davenport. (en)

Das überschriebene Land wurde ebenfalls Black-Hawk-Purchase genannt. Der Black-Hawk-Purchase beendete den Black-Hawk-Krieg unter Führung von Häuptling Black Hawk, der am Vertrag selbst jedoch nicht beteiligt war, da er sich zu der Zeit in Gefangenschaft befand. Als zweiter Black-Hawk-Purchase ist der Vertrag vom Oktober 1837 bekannt, gemäß dem die Sauk und Fox 1.250.000 Acre (etwa 5.000 km²) ihrer neuen Heimat, dem jetzigen Iowa, verkauften. Am 1. Mai 1843 mussten sie auch das verbliebene Land in Iowa verlassen und zogen nach Kansas (dritter Black-Hawk-Purchase). (de)
