    PIONEERS IN WOOD COUNTY, W. VA., VOL. I BY JOHN A. HOUSE 1936‘ BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES OF EARLY SETTLERS IN WOOD COUNTY PIONEERS IN AND NEAR BELLEVILLE. JOSEPH WOOD The foremost character in the early history of the Belleville colony was Joseph wood, founder of the station, and general manager of the colony, which was planted by William Tilton on his vast holdings in Wood, (then Harrison), County, Virginia, in 1785. Tilton, whowas a wealthy Philadelphia merchant, capitolist and land speculator, camewith the party, and remained for a time, but Woodwas his manager, and later became possessor of the lands on which the settlement was made, Joseph Woodcame to wood County, December 16th, 1785, though he had visit­ ed the spot in the summerbefore, and was several weeks on the way. He married a daughter of James Penthliver, one of his “Pilgrim” colonist party. As Belleville was a part of KanawhaCounty before 1800, there is no rec­ ord at Parkersburg of the event. After the loss of that part of "the original four thousand acres" included in the claim of Dr. Craik, he movedto the Marietta colony, where he acquired prominence, becoming a judge. Later, Judge Wooddisposed of the ramainder of his lands in the Belleville tract, as shownelsewhere, and remained a citizen of the buckeye state until his death. GEORGE D. AVERY George Dollbeare Avery was the proprietor of the Dr. Craik survey, con­ sisting of thirteen hundredseventy-four acres of the Belleville bottoms. Averywas, like most of the first settlers of the Belleville colony, a northern man, yet like other northern men who were pioneers of woodCounty; the Spencers, Cooks, Stokelys, and others, he indulged in the ownership of slaves, when living in a state where he could.

  • A HISTORY of BELPRE Washington County, Ohio
    A HISTORY OF BELPRE Washington County, Ohio -By- C. E. DICKINSON, D. D. Formerly Pastor of Congregational Church Author of the History of the First Congregational Church Marietta, Ohio PUBUIBHID FOR THB AUTHOR BY GLOBE PRINTING & BINDING COMPANY PARKRRSBURG. WEST VIRGINIA Copyrighted in 1920 by C. E. DICKINSON DEDICATED To the Belpre Historical Society with the hope that it will increase its efficiency and keep alive the interest of the people in the prosperity of their own community. FOREWORD The history of a township bears a similar relation to the history of a nation that the biography of an indi­ vidual bears to the record of human affairs. Occasionally an individual accomplishes a work which becomes an essential and abiding influence in the history of the world. Such persons however are rare, although a considerable number represent events which are important in the minds of relatives and friends. The story of only a few townships represents great historic events, but ac­ counts of the transactions in many localities are of im­ portance to the present and future residents of the place. Belpre township is only a small spot on the map of Ohio and a smaller speck on the map of the United* States. Neither is this locality celebrated for the transaction of many events of world-wide importance; at the same time the early history of Belpre exerted an influence on the well being of the State which makes an interesting stqpy for the descendants of the pioneers and other residents of the township. Within a very few months of the arrival of the first settlers at Mariettapfchey began to look for the most favorable places to locate jtheir homes.

The Adjudicatory State: Sovereignty, Property, and Law in the U.S. Territories, 1783-1802 Abstract “The Adjudicatory State” traces the collision between the federal legal vision for the early American West and the preexisting laws and customs that governed the region. To administer the vast region it obtained in the 1783 Treaty of Paris, the United States created the territorial system, under which federal officials would temporarily govern western “territories” until they achieved statehood. The federal government would also survey and sell the public domain to private purchasers. But these grand plans ran afoul of territorial realities. Both the Northwest Territory, encompassing much of the present-day Midwest, and the Southwest Territory, encompassing present-day Tennessee, were borderlands, places where Native peoples, French settlers, Anglo-American intruders, and land companies contended for sovereignty and property. Instead of crafting a new legal order, federal officials found themselves barraged with preexisting claims.

  • The Constitution's First Declared War: The
    COPYRIGHT © 2021 VIRGINIA LAW REVIEW ASSOCIATION THE CONSTITUTION’S FIRST DECLARED WAR: THE NORTHWESTERN CONFEDERACY WAR OF 1790–95 William Hall & Saikrishna Bangalore Prakash* What counts as the first presidential war—the practice of Presidents waging war without prior congressional sanction? In the wake of President Donald Trump’s attacks on Syria, the Office of Legal Counsel opined that unilateral presidential war-making dates back 230 years, to George Washington. The Office claimed that the first President waged war against Native American tribes in the Northwest Territory without first securing congressional authorization. If true, executive war-making has a pedigree as old as the Constitution itself. Grounded in a systematic review of congressional laws, executive correspondence, and rich context of the era, this Article evaluates the claim that our first President waged war in reliance upon his constitutional authority. In fact, there is little that supports the bold claim. Congress authorized war against Northwestern tribes raiding frontier settlements. In other words, Congress exercised its power to declare war and did, in fact, declare war, albeit without using that phrase. Moreover, Washington and his cabinet repeatedly disclaimed any constitutional power to wage war without congressional sanction, making it exceedingly unlikely that he waged war of his own accord or in sole reliance on his constitutional powers. Washington’s abjurations of power should make executive-branch lawyers blush, for the Commander in Chief and his celebrated advisors, including Alexander Hamilton, Thomas Jefferson, and Henry Knox, consistently observed that Presidents could not take the nation to war and, therefore, could not sanction offensive measures, including attacks.
