“From Pioneers to Settlement: An Overview of Ohio’s First People and the Rise of the First Settled Villages”<br>
This talk will discuss the arrival of the first people in the Ohio Valley. Native Americans settled in Ohio more than 13,000 years ago, overcoming rapid changes in climate. Eventually these populations would become more sedentary where they domesticated some
 of the crops in eastern North America. This is one of only nine independent domestication events in the world. Around 2,000 years ago these first pioneers built some of the most impressive forms of monumental architecture anywhere in the world.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo2">

 In particular, the records of Irish-born George Croghan help reveal a vantage from Fort Pitt and Miami communities who controlled the West.<o:p></o:p></li></ul>

“The Northwest Ordinance: America’s Forgotten Constitution”<br>
The 1787 Northwest Ordinance was passed the same summer that the Founders drafted the US Constitution. In fact, some of the framers had to leave Philadelphia to vote in Congress in New York to pass it! The importance of the Ordinance to the political formation
 of the United States has been forgotten, but arguably it laid the foundation for republican state governments from Ohio to the Pacific Ocean. It deserves central consideration in how we understand the thinking of the Founders and the kind of government they
 enacted in that fateful summer of 1787.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;mso-list:l3 level1 lfo3">

“Selective Migration and the Production of Ohio’s Regional Cultural Landscapes During the Early National Period”<br>
Both the historical and contemporary cultural landscapes of Ohio reflect the legacy of the settlement of a variety of population groups during the state’s early period of settlement. During this formative era migrants from three of the primary East Coast culture
 regions, as well as foreign immigrants hailing mainly from Germany, funneled into the frontier Old Northwest via Zane’s Trace, the National Road, The Great Lakes, and the Ohio River. As migrants from each of these hearth areas settled in geographically separate
 regions in Ohio, they brought with them characteristic values and ideals, including agricultural traditions and material culture. This resulted in distinctive regional cultural landscapes. This talk will analyze Ohio’s early settlement history and geography,
 delineate the state’s distinctive culture regions, and identify the attendant cultural landscape features that distinguish each of these regions.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;mso-list:l3 level1 lfo3">

“Federalist Failure: Conflict and Disorder in the Northwest Territory”<br>
Historians have long credited the Ohio Company of Associates for establishing order and stability in the early American West. From its enlightened design of Marietta to its promotion of social and religious life on the frontier, the Ohio Company has been seen,
 in the words of David McCullough, as a progenitor of “the American way of life.” This paper offers a counter narrative, one that highlights the conflict and disorder created by the Ohio Company and other Federalist programs in the Northwest Territory rather
 than its successes.<o:p></o:p></li></ul>

<a href="https://youtu.be/CjCYUeDf4Gw" target="_blank"><span style="color:blue">Watch live or later on YouTube(opens in a new window)</span></a>.<br>
When pioneers began flooding into the region that would become Ohio just after the Revolutionary War, some were guided by the best ideals of that revolution – that all men are created equal, with an equal right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
 These pioneers included thousands of free people of African descent who were hugely successful settlers on that early frontier. From the Black Buckeyes who made the creation of Columbus possible and founded dozens of communities, to those who fought in the
 War of 1812, these antebellum Ohio settlers shaped the region and the nation. Without them there would be no Ohio, so why are they still being kept out of history books. And why should we care?<o:p></o:p></li></ul>

Born into an impoverished Yankee family, John “Appleseed” Chapman spent most of his life planting a distinctive apple culture across Ohio and the Old Northwest. His activities put him in contact with an array of migrant communities that occupied the region

“Re-Tracing Zane: Zane’s Trace and Production of Space in the Ohio Country”<br>
Zane’s Trace, was the first formally-sanctioned nonmilitary road in the Northwest Territory, along ancient trade routes by a party led by Virginian Ebenezer Zane in 1796-1797. Extending along the southern extent of glaciation, the Trace ran across different
 landforms and land survey systems, linking the Mid-Atlantic to the South via a series of inland river towns, producing a complex linear cultural landscape. This paper explores the evolution of the cultural landscape along its route, finding unity amid a diversity
 of culture areas, property systems and natural landscapes as it explores how this route was implicated in dispossession as it shaped settlement, until it was made remote by the shifting scales of transportation, political machinations and westward settlement.
 Yet the current fragmentary landscape demonstrates not only the persistence of Zane’s Trace through time, but also points to powerful historical processes that engendered its development, disillusion, commemoration and designation. The many representations
 of the Trace express the differential processes of landscape change that typify the variegated land use of the edge of Appalachian Ohio.<o:p></o:p></li></ul>

David McCullough devotes a whole chapter in <i>The Pioneers</i> to “The Cause of Learning,” in which he celebrates the Northwest Ordinance’s provisions for public schools and Manasseh and Ephraim Cutler’s hopes for republican education on the frontier. In general,
 he repeats the standard narrative of the common-school crusade, in which reformist Whigs led reluctant Democrats toward in a grand political consensus in support of statewide systems of public education. But what if this story was a tale not of consensus but
