When people crossed the United States in the 1800s, they faced danger from criminals and American Indians. A group of people would join together to create a wagon train consisting of a group of horses and wagons traveling together. That way any group bent on robbery would need to attack a much larger group than a single family in a single wagon. A small group of criminals or an Indian raiding party would leave such a group alone.
