Connecticut Western Lands
PETITION TO THE SENATE AND HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE UNITED STATES IN CONGRESS ASSEMBLED
Philadelphia: Poulson 1802. 8pp caption title as issued bound in modern marbled wrappers. Small blank forecorner chipping to first leaf lightly spotted else Very Good. <br/><br/> This rare Petition-- from Pennsylvania settlers on lands in Luzerne Northumberland and Northampton Counties claimed by Connecticut-- reviews the history of the Western Land Dispute between Pennsylvania and Connecticut. Examined in detail are the 1782 judicial decree terminating the rights of the State of Connecticut but not rights of private claimants the litigation brought by Connecticut claimants and attempts of the Pennsylvania Legislature to adjust those claims. Disliking the adjustment the settlers here request federal intervention. The Committee Report and the Vote on the Question rejecting the settlers' request are printed here. <br/> Bristol and Shipton call this an 1800 imprint; this is impossible because the Petition refers to events in February 1801. NAIP which records only 18th century American imprints does not list it. American Imprints says it was printed in 1802. <br/>FIRST EDITION. AI 2874 1. Bristol 11109. Shipton & Mooney 49135. OCLC 55642207 7 as of September 2014. Poulson unknown books

An evidently unrecorded document on Connecticut claims to the Western Reserve not located on ESTC OCLC or NAIP as of March 2017.<br/><br/> "A general meeting of the agents of said proprietors held at Hartford on the 17th May 1797" established a schedule of taxes. But Frances Bradley of Fairfield failed to pay. Thus on January 15 1798 her property was sold for the amount of unpaid taxes to Walter Terry of Fairfield. Lothrop Lewis of Fairfield the tax collector here officially transfers the property to Terry. His deed dated March 30 1799 is acknowledged on April 5 1799. Lothrop Lewis whose name is printed also signs in ink; witnesses were Lewis Sturges and Samuel Rowland. <br/> In 1786 Connecticut relinquished claims to land west of Pennsylvania except for the Western Reserve a portion of what is now south of Lake Erie in northeast Ohio. Connecticut assigned some of the Reserve to its citizens as compensation for losses suffered during the Revolution; and sold the rest to a consortium of Connecticut men including Moses Cleaveland who had formed the Connecticut Land Company. Their speculations were not successful there being no effective local government in the Reserve capable of unraveling the tangle of land titles. Thus taxes imposed were frequently not collected. To force payment of the tax on January 15 1798 Lothrop Lewis conducted the sales.
