Excerpt from A Chapter in the History of Cleveland
To the student who puts himself back to the time of the happening of these events, it appears clearly, xst, that the Western Reserve was not a portion of the north-west Terri tory until 1800, and and, that the formation of the County of Wayne to include that portion of the Reserve west of the Cuyahoga River was invalid for two reasons, (1) because that land constituted a part of the Reserve and was not sub ject to the government of the north-west Territory, and (2) because the person who undertook to form that county, Win thtop Sargent, was not such officer as he pretended to be (acting governor), as the Governor, Arthur St. Clair, was within the boundary lines of the north-west Territory on the day the county was formed.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a detailed historical examination of the establishment and evolution of Cleveland, Ohio, during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Part of a larger territorial land dispute between the newly formed United States and Great Britain, Cleveland's early political and economic identity was shaped by a complex interplay between Native American tribes, American settlers, British influence, and the geopolitics of the time. The author's deep dive into primary source material, including treaties, deeds, and personal accounts, offers fascinating insights into the city's formative years and the challenges its residents faced as they negotiated competing claims and aspirations in a rapidly changing frontier landscape. By exploring the interplay between local, regional, and international forces, this book contributes to our understanding of both the unique history of Cleveland and the broader historical processes that shaped the development of the American Midwest.
