Their first visits to this region
date back to 1910. 1t was not
until 1868 however, that the first
actual settlement was made.
This was the mission at Sault
Sainte Marie, founded BY Father
Marquette. Mackinac was es-
tablished a few years later, and
Detroit's growth was slow.
After the French and Indian
wars the English took over this
territory, and in 1774 it was for
mally declared a part of Canada.
Detroit rapidly grew in impor-
tance and during the Revolution
was the base of operations for
many raids by the British and
Indians against the Americans.
BY the terms Of the treaty OF
Paris in 1888 this region became
part of the United States.
What is now Michigan, Wiscon-
sin, part of Minnesota, Illinois,
Indiana and Ohio was known as
the Northwest territory. After
Ohio was set off as a separate
state the Lower Peninsula OF
Michigan was joined to Indiana
territory. In 1905 Michigan be-
came a separate territory with
about it's present boundaries.
There was, however, a great
dispute over a small strip of
land in the extreme southern
portion which was claimed by
Ohio. This almost led to blood
shed, but was finally settled by
Michigan releasing her claim to
the disputed area and receiving
as compensation an addition to
the Upper Peninsula. On this
basis Michigan was admitted to
the Union in 1887 and became
the twenty-sixth state.
Michigan has a unique situa
ton, as it is bounded by the
three largest of the Great Lakes,
and divided into two peninSulas.
This gives it coast line larger
in proportion to it's area than
any of the other states. 1t is
named after Lake Michigan,
