Two-Mile Square Reservation : ウィキペディア英語版 | Two Mile Square Reservation
The Two Mile Square Reservation or Two Mile Square Reserve was a tract of land in Ohio ceded by native Americans to the United States of America in the Treaty of Greenville in 1795. It was subsequently surveyed in a manner different from surrounding land, and lots sold to settlers. ==History==
The Americans won the Battle of Fallen Timbers in 1794, ending the Northwest Indian War. As a result of the battle, the Treaty of Greenville was signed, which ceded much of southern and eastern Ohio to America. In addition, Article 3 ceded a number of other tracts, including #11: “One piece two miles square, at the lower rapids of the Sandusky river.”〔 - Text of Treaty of Greenville Library of Congress〕 The lower rapids is today in Fremont, Ohio, and the reservation is on land that would have otherwise been part of townships four and five north, range fifteen east of the Congress Lands North and East of First Principal Meridian.〔coordinates determined from USGS topographic maps at (terraserver )〕 During the War of 1812, Fort Stephenson was built within the reservation, and successfully defended by George Croghan against attack by British and Indian troops under General Proctor.
