The Firelands, the Connecticut Western Reserve, and the Ohio Territory The Firelands, The Connecticut Western Reserve, and the Ohio Territory Peggy Clemens Lauritzen, AG [email protected] "The part of Ohio most intimately associated with Connecticut is the Western Reserve. When Connecticut yielded her claims to any Pennsylvania land by a deed of cession to Congress in 1786 [see Susquehanna Settlers], the state specifically 'reserved' a strip of land bordering upon Lake Erie and Pennsylvania, 120 miles wide from east to west.... Congress accepted this reservation, and the area ... was governed by Connecticut until 1800." (p. 199) Albert E. van Dusen. The following counties are included in the Western Reserve: Ashtabula Cuyahoga Erie Geauga Huron Lake Lorain Medina Portage Trumbull Ashland (part) Mahoning Ottawa Summit Connecticut had land claims in the Ohio territory since the Colonial period. • Most of the land was given up to the federal government in 1786 so the Northwest Territory could be created in 1787. o One portion of the land was reserved for itself in the northeast corner of Ohio, approximately 500,000 acres. o Land was divided into two parts: . The westernmost part was known as the Firelands. • Given to people who had lost property in the Revolution. British troops had burned several Connecticut town, and people lost everything they had. • The Ohio Corporation distributed the land, most of which was not occupied until after the War of 1812. The easternmost part was sold to the Connecticut Land Company in 1795 for $1.2 million dollars, which was used for education in Connecticut. • The Connecticut Land Company sent General Moses Cleaveland to survey the land and develop townships. o Cleaveland drew up townships that were 25 miles square, while the Federal Government developed townships 36 miles square. Filling in the Ohio Frontier Ohio’s population in 1810 – 321,000. “Ohio fever” was strongest in New England. British naval blockades War of 1812 slowed growth, but afterward it surged: 1820-581,000. 1830 – 938,000. strangled commerce. Farm land was scarce and expensive. Taxes Accessibility to Lake Erie was a great were high. consideration. Young men and women were particularly affected. To some, the last straw was 1816, “the year without a summer”. 1.Snow and freezing temperatures struck New England every month of the year. Ohio’s moderate temperature looked pretty good. 2. Rich new land was to be at a reasonable price. 3.Many who had gone before wrote home raving about the soil, climate, size of crops (3’ long turnips, 14’ high cornstalks). 4.Most migrating New Englanders went to the Western Reserve. 5.The trip still took forty days of travel. 6.Some young men made a solitary journey, a larger number traveled in family groups with possessions packed in wagons, animals, or their own backs. 7.Few returned east. Common migration patterns included: (These and others may be found at the link listed in the bibliography below – Routes in the Northeastern United States) 1. Across Pennsylvania Road (old Forbes Road) to Pittsburgh, down the Ohio River, up the Beaver and Mahoning River to the Youngstown-Warren area. 2. Albany and Schenectady Turnpike 3. Ancram Turnpike 4. Braddock’s Road 5. Iroquois (Mohawk) Trail 6. Seneca Road or Seneca Trail In some counties, town or county censuses taken by the state between 1798 and 1911 may supplement the federal census records. Among these are quadrennial enumerations which exist for a few counties and list males 21 years and older. Some questions to think about: 1 - By what date did your ancestors appear in the location where records of the family have been found; compare to each road’s timeline. 2 - What towns did each road pass through, and do you find your ancestral surname in any of those locations at the right time period? Check against census records. 3 - Remember that migrations occurred over many years, with people stopping and then moving along again. Pay attention to any recorded birth places of family members and compare to towns along the road. 4 - Look at the history of the areas to see what events might have led to migration. 5 - Consider the traffic on each road. Was it military, commercial, postal, exploratory, or was its heaviest use by families on the move? 6 - Read historic accounts of the early settlement of an area. 7 - Know that people often traveled with their neighbors or relatives, and that you will find the same surnames along a migration path. http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~gentutor/trails.html Select Bibliography An Every-Name Index to the History of the Western Reserve.

  • The Miami Slaughterhouse
    The Miami Slaughterhouse In the 1780’s, a Squirrel could reach Cincinnati from Pittsburg and never touch the ground. In part because of this heavy tree canopy, the land between the Little Miami River and the Great Miami River was known to have some of the richest farm land ever seen. The land between the Miami’s was a special hunting ground for the Indians. They would not give it up without a fight. In 1966, while researching a high school term paper, I found a diary written by Mary Covalt called “Reminiscences of Early Days about the construction and defense of Covalt Station primarily set during the years 1789 until 1795. “ My story tonight is about ordinary men and women coming down the Ohio River to settle in the land between the Little Miami and Great Miami Rivers. The Covalts who came down the Ohio and built Covalt Station in the area now known as Terrace Park were my ancestors. Mary Covalt’s diary along with other letters and personal accounts gives us the chance to use a zoom lens to focus on how life was lived was during this period. This story takes place in the Old Northwest Territory, and more specifically in the Ohio Territory and very specifically in the land between the two Miami Rivers. Not many of us would want to personally experience the sacrifices made to develop this land. Innocently, these pioneers came to a place that would embroil them in a life and death struggle for the next five years. These five years in the Old Northwest Territory would settle once and for all if America’s future growth would be west of the Allegany Mountains.

  • 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.

Some ethnologists believe the Shawnee descended from the Fort Ancient people. The Shawnees were wanderers, who lived in many places in the south. They became associated closely with the Delaware in Ohio and Pennsylvania. Able fighters, the Shawnees stubbornly resisted white pressures until the Treaty of Greene Ville in 1795. At the time of the arrival of the European explorers on the shores of the North American continent, the American Indians were living in a network of highly developed cultures. Each group lived in similar housing, wore similar clothing, ate similar food, and enjoyed similar tribal life. In the geographical northeastern part of North America, the principal American Indian tribes were: Abittibi, Abenaki, Algonquin, Beothuk, Cayuga, Chippewa, Delaware, Eastern Cree, Erie, Forest Potawatomi, Huron, Iroquois, Illinois, Kickapoo, Mohicans, Maliseet, Massachusetts, Menominee, Miami, Micmac, Mississauga, Mohawk, Montagnais, Munsee, Muskekowug, Nanticoke, Narragansett, Naskapi, Neutral, Nipissing, Ojibwa, Oneida, Onondaga, Ottawa, Passamaquoddy, Penobscot, Peoria, Pequot, Piankashaw, Prairie Potawatomi, Sauk-Fox, Seneca, Susquehanna, Swamp-Cree, Tuscarora, Winnebago, and Wyandot.
