National Register cat

Check it. The state historic site is just that, a state historic site. The actual entire site is not on the National Register of Historic Places, per the NRIS Database. The Register listing associated with the site in Rock Island is the Black Hawk Museum and Lodge on 46th Ave., according to the database. That site will have its own article as it is part of an MPS of historic and architectural significance. Anyway I will remove the cat. This article probably falls under the protected areas project not the National Register project, I will alter the banners to reflect this as well.A mcmurray 16:40, 20 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think Saukenuk a redirect, deserves its own page, as does the Museum and Lodge mentioned above.--IvoShandor (talk) 16:04, 10 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The Skeleton and the Pow Wow

Two things missing from this article, that might be of interest. First, I remember from my youth that the skeleton of one of the men who murdered Col Davenport used to be on display in the museum. Kinda gruesome, but was the focal point of the visit for many bored school boys. ;) It was no longer on display the last time I visited. Anyone know more details?

Second, it would also be interesting to recount the annual pow wow that was held at the park for many years. When did it start, and when did it end? --Wws (talk) 21:20, 16 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I found this on The Death of Colonel George Davenport. The skeleton was that of John Long - one of the conspirators. Apparently it was removed from the museum and buried in 1978.

There is also a little bit about the pow wows in this biography of John Hauberg. The pow wows started in 1940. I remember them well into the 1960s, but have no idea when they ended. --Wws (talk) 22:22, 1 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
