1832 · The Black Hawk War
Convinced that a group of Native American tribes were hostile, The United States formed a frontier militia to stop them in their tracks. Even though Black Hawk was hoping to avoid bloodshed while trying to resettle on tribal land, U.S. officials opened fire on the Native Americans. Black Hawk then responded to this confrontation by successfully attacking the militia at the Battle of Stillman's Run and then left northward. After a few months the militia caught up with Black Hawk and his men and defeated them at the Battle of Wisconsin Heights. While being weakened by hunger, injuries and desertion, Black Hawk and the rest of the many native survivors retreated towards the Mississippi. Unfortunately, Black Hawk and other leaders were later captured when they surrendered to the US forces and were then imprisoned for a year.
Name Meaning
Some characteristic forenames: French Gilles, Andre, Emile, Normand, Marcel, Alain, Armand, Gaston, Pierre, Antoine, Benoit, Fernand.
English: from a Middle English personal name, Alard, Adelard, Aylard, or Elard. The former two names are usually of native English origin, from Old English Æthelheard, composed of the elements æthel ‘noble’ + heard ‘hard, bold’. Alternatively, the surname may be of continental origin, from an ancient Germanic name (see 2 below), which developed in Old French to Alard, and in Middle Dutch to Adelaert and Alaert. The continental names were used in post-Conquest England by Normans and Flemings. Later development of -ard to -ett and -att in surnames means that these personal names may also lie behind some examples of e.g. Allatt and Hallett .
French: from the medieval personal name Alard, from ancient Germanic Adelhard, composed of the elements adal ‘noble’ + hard ‘hardy’. Compare Allar , Allor , Allord , and Allore .
