History of Development addition project feedback

[edit]

For a History course at North Central State college, we were asked to pick a topic from Wikipedia that is local and has little to no information on the history from pre 1900's. I am in need of some constructive feedback from any interested members of the Wikipedia community, please help as soon as possible, the sooner the better.

Facts that I have propose to beef up the pre-1900 history of the article are: "Pioneers came to live here about the time of the War of 1812 were New Englanders, most of them from Connecticut"(xi) "Chicago Junction- division point were large transportation business met"(xi) "In the south part of Huron County occupies southwest corner of Connecticut Western Reserve"(4) "Isaac Mills appointed to attend Indian treaty conducted by William Dean in Cleveland, Ohio(5) "Met at location of what today is Toledo on July 4, 1805 with Chippewa, Ottawa, Pottawatomie, Wyandot, Delaware, Munsee, and Shawnee to relinquish claims to land in the Reserve(6) Became a state in 1803(6) "Created by the 'Famed Ordinance' of July 13, 1787"(6)
