Behind Ohio's townships lie these pages. These records changed a region. Issued as the Western Reserve Historical Society 1916 bulletin, this rare two-part volume unites institutional self-portrait and frontier archive. Part I gathers the society's articles of incorporation, officers, membership and activities, forming a meticulous historical society annual report that charts how citizens set out to preserve the memory of the early Ohio Western Reserve. Part II turns to the roots of Ohio settlement history through the Connecticut Land Company papers, preserving agreements, negotiations and western reserve land deeds that shaped the transfer of a New England Western Reserve into the young Midwest, and illuminating a pivotal chapter in American land companies history. For local historians and family researchers, this is a powerful genealogy research resource: records, membership rolls and references that help reconstruct western reserve genealogy records and the networks of men and women who founded towns, churches and schools. As an archival document collection and primary source history volume, it invites casual readers to step inside the documentary texture of early Ohio society, while offering scholars and collectors an authoritative window into law, land and community on the expanding American frontier. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint -- a collector's item and a cultural treasure.
