Best Answer

The Mormon Pioneers and the Native Americans did have a few problems, but for the most part they got along pretty well. The Mormons tried hard to be friendly, share their supplies, and defend the Native Americans from other white men who would come to kidnap their women and children. Most of the time the Native Americans viewed the Mormons as a people kicked out of their homes and sympathized with them. The Mormons even sent missionaries among the Indian tribes and many converted. Both groups were pretty suspicious of each other in the early years, each feeling that the other was not trustworthy.
