  • Geauga County, Ohio General Plan 2003: Cultural Resources
    CHAPTER II CULTURAL RESOURCES SUMMARY AND PLANNING ISSUES The demands upon cultural resources will increase based upon current and expected demographic trends. As demand rises, devising sources of funds will need to be explored. The basic spatial distribution of such facilities in the county may need to be examined. The contribution of the arts is an essential element in the county, especially as a component of education of students. Coincidentally, the arts should expand programming to create new audiences for activities, including theater and dance. An example may be the Geauga Lyric Theater Guild’s conversion of the former Geauga Cinema in the City of Chardon to offer stage shows and related activities. Other opportunities may exist in the county to reuse buildings for the promotion of the arts. Cultural resources have an effect upon the quality of life in the county and the region. Other impacts include enhancing interaction of residents and promotion of travel and tourism. This section of the plan brings into play historic, archaeological, and cultural resources. Such resources should be inventoried, and to the extent possible, protected. Encroachment of incompatible development upon historic areas should be discouraged. HISTORICAL OVERVIEW Geauga County was originally part of the tract known as the Connecticut Western Reserve. The Colony of Connecticut claimed title to the land (see Map II-1). In 1795, Connecticut conveyed title to about 3,000,000 acres of the easterly portion of the Western Reserve to the Connecticut Land Company for $1,200,000.00. The officers of the land company decided to subdivide the region east of the Cuyahoga River into townships about five miles square.

  • Bison, Slavery, and the Rise and Fall of the Grand Village of the Kaskaskia
    The Power of the Ecotone: Bison, Slavery, and the Rise and Fall of the Grand Village of the Kaskaskia Robert Michael Morrissey Downloaded from Among the largest population centers in North America toward the end of the seventeenth century was the Grand Village of the Kaskaskia, which, combined with surrounding set- tlements, enveloped as many as twenty thousand people for approximately two decades. http://jah.oxfordjournals.org/ Located at the top of the Illinois River valley, the village is not normally considered a significant part of American history, so it has remained relatively unknown. In many ac- counts, the location is discussed merely as a refugee center to which desperate, beleaguered Algonquians fled ahead of a series of mid-seventeenth-century Iroquois conquests that were part of the violence known as the Beaver Wars. Reeling from violence and constrained by necessity, the Illinois speakers who predominated in the place belonged to a “fragile, dis- ordered world,” “made of fragments” and dependent on French support. The size of the settlement did not reflect a particular level of native power but was simply proportional to at Indiana University Libraries on July 12, 2016 the devastation, suffering, and urgency felt by the people of the pays d’en haut (the Great Lakes area)—and particularly by the Illinois—at the start of the colonial period.1 Robert Michael Morrissey is an assistant professor of history at the University of Illinois.

Bottone April 2016 © 2016 Ethan M. Bottone. All Rights Reserved. 2 This thesis titled The Historical Production of Landscape in Perry County, Ohio: National Discourses Materialized by ETHAN M. BOTTONE has been approved for the Department of Geography and the College of Arts and Sciences by Timothy G. Anderson Associate Professor of Geography Robert Frank Dean, College of Arts and Sciences 3 Abstract BOTTONE, ETHAN M., M.S., April 2016, Geography The Historical Production of Landscape in Perry County, Ohio: National Discourses Materialized Director of Thesis: Timothy G. Anderson Beginning with the Land Ordinance of 1785, the American federal government passed a series of laws that regulated the sale of public land to private citizens. These legislations represented a discourse of revenue seeking and debt repayment, espoused by the federal government during this early period of American nation-building. In order to efficiently and rapidly create revenue, the federal government implemented the public land sale system to dispose of land within the public domain. Through the examination of land patents and field surveys of cultural landscapes, a case study of Perry County, Ohio, one of the earliest regions disposed of under this system, was utilized to determine the settlement processes that occurred during the Early American Republic. The results of this study show that the federal controls on size, shape, and locations of purchases created a characteristic settlement landscape represented by tangible landscape elements, like roads and property lines, which have persisted into the present-day landscape.

  • Parallel Journeys: US History Within the Context of Ho-Chunk History
    Parallel Journeys: US History Within the Context of Ho-Chunk History In his book, Facing East from Indian Country: A Native History of Early America, historian Daniel Richter asserts the following: “ . if we shift our perspective to try to view the past in a way that faces east from Indian country, history takes on a very different appearance. Native Americans appear in the foreground, and Europeans enter from distance shores.” The following timeline places Ho-Chunk history and the story of the United States in parallel tracks and provides that “facing east” perspective.
