Title	Facts and Historical Events of the Toledo War of 1835
Subject	Ohio Government Ohio--Boundaries--Michigan
Place	Toledo (Ohio) Lucas County (Ohio) Michigan Territory
Description	This 52-page book details the events of the Ohio-Michigan boundary dispute "as connected with the first session of the Court of Common Pleas of Lucas County, Ohio." It measures 6 by 9 inches (15.24 by 22.86 cm) and was the personal copy of President Rutherford B. Hayes. The documents relate to dispute between Ohio and the Michigan Territory that arose in 1835. The Northwest Ordinance of 1787 established a northern boundary that would have made much of northwest Ohio, including the important port city of Toledo, part of Michigan. Several subsequent surveys produced conflicting results. Congress ordered a new survey to establish Ohio's state line north of Toledo in 1835. Governor Lucas and Michigan Territory Governor Stephens Mason sent militiamen to the disputed area. Before any blood was shed, President Jackson resolved the dispute by promising that Congress would study the matter. Eventually, Congress decided to maintain the 1835 survey line, giving Ohio Toledo. In compensation, Congress awarded Michigan its Upper Peninsula.
