In the spring of 1843, nearly a thousand settlers gathered

in Independence, Missouri, their wagons laden with

dreams of Oregon's promised valleys. They came from

all walks of life-farmers, carpenters, merchants, and

artisans-each carrying generations of Eastern skills toward

an uncertain Western future. This great migration would

mark the first major wagon train to traverse the Oregon

Trail, blazing a path that countless others would follow.

The journey stretched roughly two thousand miles across

half a continent. Those who attempted it faced a gauntlet

of natural obstacles: the muddy Missouri plains, the harsh

Platte River Valley, the towering Rocky Mountains, and the

scorching Snake River desert. Disease, accidents, and the

unforgiving elements claimed many lives along the way.

Yet still they came, drawn by stories of fertile soil and fresh

beginnings in Oregon's Willamette Valley.

This is the story of one such family-the Wheelers of

Pennsylvania carried five generations of craft and

tradition toward Oregon's distant shore. Their journey

would test their physical endurance and understanding of

what makes a home. Like many others who attempted the

trail that year, they would learn that some treasures can only

be found by leaving everything familiar behind.
