Editing Timeline of the Toledo Strip (section)

====1810s====
*'''1812:''' [[War of 1812]] delayed survey of the Ordinance Line.
*'''1816:''' [[Indiana]] admitted as a state, with a northern border {{convert|10|mi|km|spell=in}} north of the Ordinance Line, to allow the state some lakefront. Michigan Territorial Governor [[Lewis Cass]] renewed request for national survey. 
*'''1817:''' [[Edward Tiffin]], [[Surveyor General]] of the Northwest and former [[Governor of Ohio]], commissioned William Harris to rerun the line. Harris drew a line favoring Ohio's claim to the Toledo Strip.
*'''1818:''' The state of [[Illinois]] admitted into the Union. The Michigan Territory was enlarged to include [[Wisconsin]] and part of [[Minnesota]]. Michigan pressed her claim to the southern boundary. At Lewis Cass' urging, President [[James Monroe]] ordered a new survey. John A. Fulton plotted the Ordinance Line a few miles south of Toledo.
*The situation was now more confused than ever. The Harris Line agreed with the Ohio Constitution, and the Fulton Line agreed with the Northwest Ordinance. The difference between the two was a wedge-shaped strip of land, {{convert|5|mi|km|spell=in}} wide at the Indiana border, {{convert|8|mi|km|spell=in}} wide at [[Lake Erie]], and {{convert|70|mi|km}} from west to east, an area of about {{convert|450|sqmi|km2}} and including the mouth of the Maumee river. This was, in effect, a no-man's land between Michigan and Ohio, claimed by both.
