Title	Robert Lucas 1835 State of the State Address
Subject	Presidents and Politics; Ohio Government; Governors
Time Period	1830s
Place	Columbus (Ohio); Franklin County (Ohio); Piketon (Ohio); Pike County Ohio)
Description	This 10 page booklet contains the text of Governor Robert Lucas’ message to the 33rd General Assembly of Ohio on June 8, 1835. Lucas (1781-1853), Ohio’s first Democratic governor, held the position from 1832 to 1836. During his second term, Lucas was pivotal in the Toledo War, which resulted from a dispute between Ohio and the Michigan territory regarding a strip of land near the Maumee River significant for economic and transportation reasons. Lucas mobilized the Ohio militia to face off against the Michigan troops at the border, but there was little interaction between them. President Jackson ultimately intervened to settle the dispute in Ohio’s favor. Lucas also served as chairman of the first Democratic national convention and the first governor of the newly established Iowa territory.
