family camping tent recommendations image
I am writing a term paper on women settlers on western mining camps.
How did women settlers in mining camps renovate the environment? I also need some background information on women settlers in mining camps in the west.
Where can I obtain additional information regarding women settlers on western mining camps. Recommendation of books, web links, etc would be appreciated. I need suggestions for primary and secondary sources as well. Any suggestions on how to outline my paper would be appreciated too.
Thanks in advance.
Answer
The old traditional opinion that the first women in the tent cities that made up mining camps were 'bawdy women' [prostitutes], is not quite an accurate statement...although it has prevailed over the years... Many wives and families [based on the census] either came with or joined their husbands...
Those tent-cities became buildings and houses......
When they began to develop into settlements, more men would then bring their wives and families out to join them. They built houses, started businesses to accommodate families and women, churches were formed, and usually as this was happening...some type of law was formed...usually a sheriff.
With children came schools and teachers....usually women. Some were widows, others were young and usually accompanied by their mothers or a relative.....
Social gatherings involving families developed, and many a single guy became a husband [and visa versa].....
The Postal Service was one of the first to respond to a growing community...bringing in the Post Office with a Post Master...and usually his family [or hers in some cases].....
In short, a more civilized aura began to form in the once rough mining camps after families and wives moved into them.

What are some good camping grounds in Florida?
I live in Miami and I am looking for some good camping grounds in south Florida ( I am willing to drive a maximum of 6 hours north if needed). My family and I will be using tents as well. Does anyone have any recommendations? I would love to be able to fish at the site as well. Cost is no problem if required :)
