The court blocked an annexation attempt and Toledo has sold most of the land, which has become a part of Maumee. The 1795 Treaty of Greenville, which resulted from the Battle of Fallen Timbers, opened Ohio and other land to settlement. In the war, Gen.

Congress named the battleground a National Historic Site last year.
