Description
Excerpt from A Historical Sketch of Johnson County: Indiana
In all that vast region of country lying between the Ohio and the lakes, France, at one time, claimed a nominal ownership. This claim, set up in the latter half of the seventeenth century, was founded on the right of discovery, settlement and military occupation, and it was maintained until the defeat of the French by Gen. Wolfe, at Quebec, in 1759. In the treaty that followed, F rance forever relinquished her pretensions to this region, and it passed into the possession of the British crown.
