Answer

The first ones wanted gold, but they were too far north. The only major gold deposits east of the Mississippi were in Dalonegah County, Georgia, & they weren't discovered until 1825. Other than that, they wanted land they could farm without having to split the profit with the nobleman whose land they plowed.
