By Beth Church
With more aspects of the
Patient Protection and
Affordable Care Act soon to
take effect, U.S. Rep. Bob
Latta is cautioning business
owners and taxpayers to be
prepared for the changes.
The congressman gave a
presentation on September
17 as part of a quarterly discussion series hosted by the
Perrysburg Area Chamber
of Commerce.
He provided a series of
handouts explaining the 21
pending tax increases of the
federal health care law
often referred to as “Obamacare.”
The legislation is expected to affect one-sixth of the
U.S. economy.
“There’s a lot of things
coming down on businesses”– small, medium and
large, he added.
Among the tax consequences of the law that he
listed are:
•Higher marginal income
tax rates on every American
who pays income taxes,
including small business
owners;
•Higher taxes if you are
married (marriage penalties
reinstated);
•Higher taxes if you are
a parent (child credit cut in
half);
•Higher death taxes on
small businesses and family
farms, and
•Higher taxes for 31 million households due to the
alternative minimum tax
(AMT). [See related box.]
21 Tax Hikes Costing Taxpayers More Than $675 Billion
The U.S. Supreme Court’s health care ruling left in place 21 tax increases enacted as part of the Patient
Protection and Affordable Care Act. A dozen of these, marked with an asterisk (*) below, target Americans
earning less than $200,000 per year for singles and $250,000 per year for married couples. According to a
new estimate from the non-partisan Joint Committee on Taxation, the tax increases that remain will cost
taxpayers more than $675 billion over the next 10 years.
Provision
Additional 0.9 percent payroll tax on wages and
self-employment income and new 3.8 percent tax
on dividends, capital gains, and other investment
income for taxpayers earning over $200,000
(singles)/$250,000 (married)
“Cadillac tax” on high-cost plans *

Prepared by Congressional Ways and Means Committee staff – June 28, 2012
Holding up a binder containing the Patient Protection and Affordable Care
Act, Mr. Latta noted that
after reading, tabbing and
highlighting the document,
he believes “there are a lot
of flaws in the legislation.”
Mr. Latta noted the Fifth
District that he represents,
covering 16 counties in
northwest Ohio, includes
the largest number of manufacturing jobs in Ohio, as
well as the largest number
of farmers and independent
businesses.
In August, during the
Congressional break he visited 80 factories, businesses, hospitals and farms, he
said.
The top four concerns he
hears from these constituents concern regulations, especially by the
EPA; Obamacare, taxes and
energy.
And in speaking with
young adults, Congressman
Latta said their top concern
is the economy–with 53
percent of Americans aged
25 and younger unemployed or under-employed.
When asked by young
people about choosing a
career for the future, the
congressman said he recommends studying to become a
compliance officer to help
businesses comply with all
the legislation coming out
of Washington.
Mr. Latta said the owners of a factory he recently
visited employ 10 workers,
but the 11th employee to be
hired will have to be a compliance officer.
“For 10 employees?” he
said.
He noted that in the new
health care legislation, the
word “shall” is used more
than 1,000 times, but the
word “may” is used less
than 50.
The National Federation
of Independent Businesses
has estimated the recordkeeping costs to be $18 to
$19 billion.
He fears a “massive
recession” next year if all of
the taxes are implemented.
The congressman also
questioned the sustainable
growth rate of the law.
The Congressional Budget Office has stated that
the tax increases over the
next 10 years will cost taxpayers more than $675 billion.
The congressman questioned what he described as
“the Washington mindset”
in regard to placing regulations on businesses–“do
they
understand
the
impact?”
He believes too many
federal government employees living and working in
Washington, D.C. do not
consider the effect of laws
“out in the real world.”
Mr. Latta described the
“embarrassing silence” of
bureaucrats visiting his

Trustees discuss options should fire/EMS levy be defeated
By Jane Maiolo
With the November 6
election only six weeks
away, the Perrysburg Township trustees discussed their
options should the fire/EMS
4-mill continuing levy fail
to be endorsed by voters.
At the September 19
meeting, Trustee Craig
LaHote said the trustees
need to provide Fire Chief
Tom Brice with guidance
should the levy not pass.
“We hope the voters are
supportive but if not we
need to look at what [services] to cut and what to
maintain,” he said, adding,
“This is new territory for
us. We haven’t had to
address this before.”
Trustee Bob Mack recommended the trustees
address the issue in detail at
an upcoming department
head meeting, giving them
and the fire chief more time
to assess the impact.
“We need to look at the
budget and see what we can
pull from the general fund,”
he said, and suggested that
the chief also examine pos-
sible ways to share equipment and services with
neighboring departments.
The trustee noted that
Ohio Governor John Kasich
is encouraging communities
to share services to save on
costs whenever possible.
Chief Brice, who had
hoped to hire a full-time
EMT/firefighter to replace a
recent retiree and three
part-time employees to cut
down on staff overtime,
suggested waiting.
“There’s not much sense
in hiring if you’re going to
have to lay someone off in
January,” he said.
The trustees opted this
spring to place the levy on
the ballot, after reviewing
the financial status of the
department and its anticipated costs.
The department currently has a permanent 1-mill
EMS levy established in
1987 and a 2-mill, five-year
fire levy in place until
2014, but those funds are
insufficient to fund the now
unified EMS/fire department.

For nearly a decade, the
trustees have taken money
from the general fund to
help cover the department’s
operating expenses, but
with cuts in federal and
state funding as well as a
reduction in tax revenues,
the township can no longer
afford to buffer the department, said Mr. Mack.
Chief Brice has said that
funds from the levy will
only be used to maintain the
department’s current level
of service, and he continues
to look for ways to bring in
revenues.
The trustees approved
one additional revenue
stream during the September meeting. They passed a
resolution allowing the fire
department to charge user
fees for the delivery of
emergency services to
motor vehicle crash sites.
The resolution reads, in
part,
“the Perrysburg
Township Fire Department
shall initiate a schedule of
user fees for the delivery of
emergency services at
motor vehicle crash sites.
The rates established shall
be the usual, customary and
reasonable costs for the services and fluctuate accordingly.
“User fees or portions
thereof not paid by insurance are waived for township residents.”
Other Business
In other business, the
trustees:
•Agreed to send firefighter Matt Homik to a
firefighter/EMS
expo
course at a cost of $290.
•Approved an automatic
aid agreement with Lake
and Troy townships. The
agreement calls for the fire
departments to mutually
send a tanker truck in the
event of a structure or suspected structure fire in
areas where there are no
fire hydrants or reliable
water sources.
“This will be a tremendous benefit to all three
communities,” said Chief
Brice.
•Authorized the purchase of equipment to outfit
the police department’s new
Chevy
Tahoe
from
Statewide Emergency Products at a cost of $9,510.
•Reviewed the detective’s report for September
4 to 19. Police Chief Mark
Hetrick said detectives are
working on sex offense,
credit card fraud and scrap
theft cases.
•Tabled a decision on the
purchase of a dump truck
and plow for the maintenance department due to the
cost. The lowest bid was
$133,507 from Stoops
freightliner.
•Announced that the fire
department will host a fire
safety open house from 11
a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday,
October 6, at the township’s
fire department on Lime
City Road. The event is
open to the public.
•Approved participation
in the Lucas County Electric Aggregation program.
The next trustees’ meeting will be at 6 p.m.,
Wednesday, October 3, at
the township meeting hall,
26609 Lime City Road and
is open to the public.

‘What a great contributor you are to the community’
Phyllis Morton receives 2012 Virginia Secor Stranahan Award
Forty-two years ago,
after her husband passed
away, Phyllis Morton and
her six young children
moved to Perrysburg to be
near family. And since that
time, Mrs. Morton has contributed to the quality of life
in her new hometown–
much of it out of the limelight of public awareness.
On September 23, Mrs.
Morton was honored by the
Perrysburg Area League of
Women Voters as the 2012
Virginia Secor Stranahan
Citizenship award recipient.
League members, guests,
family and friends gathered
at the Stranahan house at the
577 Foundation to recognize
the award recipient.
Mayor Nelson Evans,
who presented a proclamation honoring Mrs. Morton
as a “Distinguished Citizen
of Perrysburg,” told the
group that one of his “good”
duties as mayor is to recognize outstanding citizens in
the community. “Without
those citizens, our community would not be as good as it
is. Phyllis, what a great contributor you are to our community. I congratulate you.
This is a well-deserved
award.”
Mrs. Morton holds a
bachelor’s degree in psychology from Brown University and received a
M.A.T. in the art of teaching
from Seton Hall University
in New Jersey.
For 30 years prior to her
retirement several years ago,
the honoree served as service manager for Zoar
Lutheran’s Abundant Life
Center.
Currently, Mrs. Morton is
the coordinator of the Christian Seniors Interaction and
first vice president of the
Perrysburg Area Historic
Museum. She is co-chair of
the Zoar Lutheran soup
kitchen and is an ombudsman for Liberty Nursing
Home Residents in Toledo.
Mrs. Morton is a volunteer surrogate parent for
children in the Perrysburg
school district who need
assistance and volunteers for
Phyllis Morton recently was awarded the 2012 Virginia Secor Stranahan Citizen
of the Year Award by the Perrysburg Area League of Women Voters. Mrs. Morton
was presented with a proclamation by Mayor Nelson Evans and an original kilnformed glass design of downtown Perrysburg created by league member Ann
Hymel. Also, Mrs. Morton’s name was engraved on the Stranahan award, which is
on display in the Stranahan house at the 577 Foundation.
Pictured from left, are Mayor Evans, Mrs. Morton, her son David Morton, and
Carol Russell, Perrysburg Area LWV president.
Read for Literacy in the
Rossford Head Start program.
She is a court appointed
special advocate in juvenile
court of Lucas County and
serves on the citizens review
board of Lucas County
Court as a reviewer of files
in the juvenile court system
to make sure the court follows up in the best interests
of the children.
The award recipient also
served as the Perrysburg
representative on the
TARTA (Toledo Area
Regional Transit Authority)
board and she continues to
advocate for public transportation in Perrysburg.
When manager at Abundant Life, Mrs. Morton
obtained her CDL driver’s
license so she could transport residents to local
events. She earned a certificate in legal assisting from
the University of Toledo.
The 2012 honoree also is
the grandmother of 16.
Accepting the award,
Mrs. Morton said she was
very fortunate to have
known Virginia Stranahan
through Abundant Life and
“so honored to be awarded
this special award in her
name because she was such
a special lady in my life.”
Mrs. Morton shared with
the group how Mrs. Stranahan was instrumental in
making sure that she was
able to attend every seminar
in the area on aging including those held at Bowling
Green State University and
UT.
“She then called me one
day and said, ‘I think I have
something for your residents
at Abundant Life that they
would enjoy.’ And that was
playing the dulcimer, which
was made out of cardboard,”
said Mrs. Morton. “And so I
think there were 10 or 12
residents and myself who
came here to her home and
learned to play the dulcimer–a cardboard dulcimer–from a gentleman
who taught music in a high
school east of here. One by
one we were not satisfied
with the cardboard ones–we
had to have the real thing.
So, I am an owner of a dulcimer.
“Another occasion was
that I spent Easter Sunday
here at the home with Virginia and other friends and
we ate lobster out in the dining area. So I also have that
memory.
“She was quite a lady and
was always interested in bettering the community, which
is what we would expect
from her. Everything she did
was for the community–that

office, when they fail to
answer after he asks them:
“Have you ever been in a
business you regulate?”
“Regulations are not
being vetted,” he said.
Congressman Latta said
he would support repealing
the health care law, and
instead establishing legislation that: creates a pool
accessible to businesses,
the ability to buy insurance
across state lines, that takes
care of people with pre-
existing conditions and
advocates tort reform.
“If you start with a clean
slate, it’s easier than trying
to clean up 2,700 pages,”
he said.
In connection to the
health care law’s impact on
the economy, he also is
concerned about the
nation’s $1.13 trillion
deficit this year with a
quarter of the federal budget being spent on interest
payments.
“When you look at these
numbers, it’s unsustainable,” he added. “When the
next generation comes
along, everybody has a
$50,000 price tag on their
heads.”
Congressman
Latta
favors reducing taxes along
with the size of the federal
government.
He contrasted this philosophy to the recent
growth in government
offices.
“A few years ago, while
factories were cutting
employees, there was a 27
percent increase in the size
of federal departments,” he
said. “We have to cut
spending–it’s that simple.”
With $5.3 trillion owed
to foreign creditors, he
said, “if you don’t want to
sleep at night, Google ‘US
debt held by foreign countries’.”
He advocates a balanced
budget amendment for
Congress, just as is
required by law for states
and local governments.

To the citizens of Perrysburg:
I am writing this letter in
support of the Perrysburg
Schools replacement operating levy this November.
As a Perrysburg resident
for more than 16 years, I am
well acquainted with the high
quality of education that Perrysburg Schools provide.
During that time, both of
my daughters have attended
Perrysburg Schools (one graduated on to higher education,
and the other presently at the
junior high.)
The existing levy will expire at the end of this year. If
the existing levy is allowed to
expire without replacement,
the school district would lose
20 percent of its funding. Any
organization or family would
be hard pressed to deal with a
20 percent cut.
This loss of revenue is
compounded by the recent 10
percent school budget cut
from the State of Ohio.
Perrysburg Schools are
faced with many challenges.
We are all aware that we
live in a rapidly changing
world. This entails providing
students with higher levels of
technology than ever before.
This technology comes at a
cost, but is necessary to insure
our students are prepared for
the future.
Our strong school system
is a point of pride within our
community and a valuable
selling point to potential new
businesses and residents alike.
I am supporting the replacement operating levy on
November 6.
Pete Carella
Letter to the
Editor
Dear Editor:
As a long time resident of
Perrysburg, I am proud that
we have supported our seniors, the mental health levy,
our schools, Way Library,
trash collection, etc. These
services aren’t used by everyone but they build a strong,
vital and inviting place to live,
work and play.
Public transportation is a
service that contributes to the
whole community not just
those who use it. Businesses
gain customers from other
communities who pay sales
taxes for purchases of goods
and services, property has a
higher value compared to similar property not served by
public transit, and employees
can get to and from their jobs.
In fact, the national average
for a return on investment is
just under $4 for every $1 invested in public transportation.
Perrysburg has many people who rely on public transportation as their only means
of transportation. The elderly,
disabled, young people, people without a car or license
and many others can continue
to live independently by using
public transportation
The new transportation
plan for Perrysburg is designed based on our needs and
costs half the tax dollars compared to TARTA. Unlike
TARTA, it’s a five year levy
controlled by Perrysburg voters.
Vote on November 6.

Dear Editor:
I am writing this letter to
express my total opposition
to the Perrysburg School
District levy request.
When I look at the breakdown of my Wood County
property taxes, by far the
largest portion of my property taxes goes
to the Per rysburg School District. As
if that is not enough, they
also rip off the taxpayers
WASH
with their Perrysburg
School
District Income Tax.
NIf the state of Ohio has
reduced the level of funding
for the local school districts,
then the schools must do
what we the taxpayers have
to do whenever our income
is reduced. We cut back on
our expenses so that they are
in line with our income.
If the Perrysburg School
District has the income for a
“Chevrolet,” they should not
expect the taxpayers
to give
4198742877
them more money so that
they
$ can have a “Cadillac”
instead.
On November 6, I will be
voting no to the Perrysburg
School
District levy request.

23-16 victory over the sixtime defending league champion Southview Cougars this
past Friday night at Steinecker Stadium in Perrysburg.
For the Jackets, it was
their first victory over the
Cougars since 2007 and
keeps them undefeated in
league play.
Perrysburg and Napoleon
remain the only unbeaten
teams in NLL action, both at
3-0.
The Jackets are 5-1 overall, while Southview falls to
2-4 overall and 1-2 in the
NLL.
Perrysburg was outgained
by the Cougars in total
yards, 431 to 358, and
Southview recorded 22 first
downs to Perrysburg’s eight,
but the Jackets were able to
capitalize on big plays while
not giving up any of their
own.
Jacket quarterback Steve
Slocum once again proved to
be a difference maker. The
senior had his hand in every
Perrysburg point, including
the game’s opening points

the first quarter with a 33yard field goal.

set up a one-yard touchdown
run by Slocum, recapturing
the lead for the Jackets at 107 with 7:36 to play in the
third quarter.
Another Southview drive
into the Perrysburg end of
the field came up short, this
time with Jacket safety Matt
Mesker jumping a route and
intercepting
quarterback
Austin Valdez, giving Perrysburg the ball at their own
22 with 2:10 to play in the
quarter.
The Mesker interception
didn’t result in Perrysburg
points, but changed the possession of the field in favor
of the Jackets. Two series
later, now in the fourth quarter, Slocum broke loose for a
60-yard touchdown run on
third down, upping the Perrysburg lead to 16-7 with
9:14 to play in the fourth
quarter.

The Perrysburg High
School Athletic Department
would like to thank our students and the community for
their support at all of our
athletic contests. The spirit
and the team support have
created an atmosphere that
is unparalleled in northwest
Ohio.
Aside from the win over
Southview, the highlight of
the night was our fireworks display. While we wanted to use
that show in our salute to the military night, the weather prevented that from happening.
We would like to thank the following local sponsors who
made our fireworks display event a success: Bowers Asphalt, Drs. Detwiler and Gannon, JC Chan Management,
Modene Insurance Agency, Leatherman & Witzler, Attorneys, Perrysburg Messenger Journal, First Federal, Kingston
Residence of Perrysburg, and Drs. Downs and Hire. Their
support is greatly appreciated.
To conclude Friday night’s community activity, we collected more than 200 jackets in our “Jackets giving Jackets” campaign. Our area residents who are in need of a
jacket for warmth this winter will benefit from this collection. It is community members and local business support
that make Perrysburg a special place. Go Jackets!

Maumee Valley Country Day
School in 2005 and Yale University in 2009. While at
Yale, her senior thesis, titled
“The Voice of Feminist Wit
in the Women’s Suffrage
Movement: Examining Alice
Duer Miller’s ‘Are Women
People?’” garnered the
Edwin W. Small prize in
American History 2008-09.
She plans to continue her

In celebration of their 50th
anniversary and in conjunction with National Fire Prevention Week, the Perrysburg
Township Fire Department
will host an Open House from
11 a.m. to 3 p.m. this Saturday, October 6 at the township public safety building,
26711 Lime City Road, Perrysburg.
Open to the public , the
event will feature family activities.
At 1 p.m., there will be
live burn demonstrations, including one which shows
what happens when a Thanksgiving turkey is cooked inappropriately in a turkey fryer.
“The side-by-side burns
vividly show the tremendous
speed of a typical fire and its
potential for deadly destruction,” said Keith Feeney Sr.,
fire safety inspector.
“Also illustrated will be
the vital importance of home
fire safety technology [smoke
alarms and sprinkler systems]
that save lives and reduce
property damage,” he added.
The fire inspector noted
that more than 80 percent of
all fire deaths occur in the
home. “The fire department is
using this important event to
help people of all ages understand how dangerous a home
fire is and the importance of
prevention, detection, suppression and escape.”

Comfort quilts have been made by members of our local community and donated
to people enduring unusual hardship including families of fallen soldiers, victims
of tornado, fire and auto accidents, many homeless and orphans. Currently, a
comfort quilt is being made for the family whose baby was shot and killed and
another child critically injured. It is through the sale of fabrics and classes that
we have sustained our mission. We will soon be losing our store-front and we
are in need of affordable commercial space. Ideally, we need at least 900 sq. ft.
to continue the services necessary to fulfill our mission. If you would like to
learn more about Blue Skies Quilting & Gifts, please stop by our shop at 420
Lousiana Avenue, call Theresa at 419-704-7525 or visit our Web site

Way Library Oral History: Robert E. Lee slept here
By Richard Baranowski
Did you know that
Robert E. Lee, that great
warrior of the Confederacy,
once visited the Perrysburg
area? It was back in 1835
when Lee, then an
unknown figure, spent
some time camped along
the Maumee River, a few
scant miles from Perrysburg. This episode in his
life is much overlooked, as
nobody gave a hoot about
an 1835 Robert E. Lee.
Biographers either skip or
skim it at best. Ardath
Danford mentioned it in her
book, “The Perrysburg
Story.” She gave me the
idea and I decided to look
into it.
What was Lee doing
here? As we pass through
four years of commemorating the 150th anniversary
of the Civil War, what better time to tell the story of
Robert E. Lee’s visit to
northern Wood County.
Robert E. Lee was born
in 1807, the son of General
“Light-Horse Harry” Lee,
one of the most fearless
cavalrymen of the Revolutionary War. Lee attended
West Point, excelling in
mathematics, graduating in
1829. He reported for duty
to the Army Corps of Engineers and began several
years of designing or
repairing army buildings,
wharves, and fortifications.
He also supervised the
preparation of accounts and
reports.
In 1834, Lee was promoted to assistant in the
office of General Charles
Gratiot the Chief Engineer
of the Army in Washington
D.C., who also had a connection to Wood County.
In 1813 he designed and
directed the construction of
Fort Meigs. Under Gratiot,
Lee was saddled with dull
and monotonous desk work
and he didn’t like it much,
preferring to be out in the
field. Washington social
life also bored him,
although his wife, granddaughter of Martha Washington, relished its sparkly
scene. So when Lee was
tapped for a western survey
project, he was perhaps
happy to light out for the
territory.
In the spring of 1835 the
boundary of Ohio and
Michigan was in dispute. In
1833, Captain Andrew Talcott, who was Lee’s friend
and former commanding
officer, had made a survey
of the line in controversy,
but it was still causing disagreement. In May, he was
directed by Congress to
again verify the boundary.
The non-smoking, nondrinking, Second Lieutenant Robert E. Lee was
assigned to help Talcott in
the re-survey.
Let’s leave Lee for a
moment to explain what
instigated the future Civil
War general’s visit to Wood
County. Ohio’s original
boundary line had its roots
in the 1787 Northwest
Ordinance, a document
which outlined how the territory would be divided.
The United States had leaders with great foresight and
they were planning far in
advance how the country
would be divided, settled,
and governed. Today, we
think of the Northwest as
being the states of Washington or Oregon. In 1787
the Northwest Territory
was what soon would
become Ohio, Michigan,
Indiana, Illinois, and Wisconsin. The territory of
Ohio was the first to gain a
population of 60,000, the
number needed to advance
to statehood, which it met
in 1803.
But Ohio’s northern
boundary was fuzzy. The
border line ran from the
most southern point of
Lake Michigan and proceeded east, terminating in
Lake Erie at the Pennsylvania line. 1787 surveyors
didn’t know where the
southern edge of Lake
Michigan was and drew the
line farther north than it
should have been. This
defect was the cause of the
dispute, but it gave Ohio
valuable Lake Erie frontage
and Ohio did not want this
line corrected. To assure
itself Lake Erie access, the
state constitution, written
in 1802 stated that “the east
line from the south bend of
Robert E. Lee is almost unrecognizable in this portrait
made around the time of his visit to Wood County.
Lake Michigan would pass
south of Lake Erie (and it
did) then the boundary
should angle north to the
extremity of the Maumee
Bay.” These writers of the
constitution were smart fellows. Congress received
Ohio into the Union without objecting to this proviso. William Harris’s later
1817 survey agreed with
this boundary. Michigan’s
territorial governor disagreed and in 1818 had
John Fulton re-survey the
line. It conformed to the
flawed Northwest Ordinance line which favored
Michigan. Consequently,
an eight-mile wedge in
soon-to-be-called Toledo
was in flux.
By 1835, the dispute
reached a boiling point.
Michigan wanted to
become a state. They
demanded this strip of land
along with its all-important
harbor. The Toledo strip
was part of Monroe County
and governed by them,
although the people living
there considered themselves Buckeyes and wanted to stay that way. In the
meantime, Ohio was building a series of canals - one
of which was the MiamiErie to terminate in Toledo.
There was much money
invested and Ohio had no
intention of giving up this
future epicenter of transportation and commerce.
Michigan sent out its militia to protect the Toledo
strip. Robert Lucas, governor of Ohio who had fought
at Fort Meigs in the War of
1812, organized 600 volunteers to defend its interest.
They headquartered in Perrysburg, located safely in
Ohio. This was April of
1835. Then politics bared
its sharp, pointy teeth.
By 1835 Ohio as a state
was a political power. It
had 21 electoral votes,
while Michigan, still a territory, had none. Andrew
Jackson wanted those votes
in 1836 for his anointed
successor, Martin Van
Buren. If he didn’t give
Ohio the strip, he might not
get their votes. To complicate matters further, Michigan’s territorial governor
was 24-year old Stevens
Mason, an appointee, pet
and protégé of Andrew
Jackson. How to placate
the two governors, both
Democrats? Lee’s survey
exercise may have been a
stall tactic for the sly Old
Hickory in an effort to kill
time until after the election.
This was the scene when
the 28-year-old Robert E.
Lee reached Ohio in early
summer 1835. Ohio and
Michigan militia had
already tangled in April.
While the survey party
worked that summer, other
skirmishes would rack the
area, although they were
mostly bark and bluff, a
few wild shots in the air,
and a fist-fight or two. As
the line that Lee was to plot
coincided with the Fulton
Line, the line Ohio disagreed with, the state
would not be exactly welcoming these surveyors,
but not foolish enough to
interfere with the U.S.
Army.
The Fulton Line passes
very close to Perrysburg
and Maumee. Here is its
path using today’s landmarks. It runs west from
Lake Erie through Ottawa
National Wildlife Refuge
and then advances roughly
parallel and slightly north
of Curtice Road. Cutting
across Route 280, just
north of Great Eastern
Shopping Center, it continues along East Broadway,
to Miami Street and crosses
the Maumee River near the
Rossford Marina.
On the opposite side of
the river, the line continues
west through South Toledo,
bisects UTMC, then into
Swan Creek Metro Park
and on a bead parallel and
slightly north of Airport
Highway. The line splits
the village of Holland and
passes about a mile north
of the airport and on west
to Indiana. Perrysburg and
Maumee, then part of Wood
County, were only a few
miles from this line and
according to Michigan, true
border towns.
But in 1835 the boundary question remained
unsettled. And that’s where
Robert E. Lee re-enters our
story. Here’s what we
know about his work on the
survey line and his visit to
our area.
Lee left Washington and
his wife, who was expecting a child in July. She
would not be alone, however. The couple lived with
her wealthy parents and a
house-full of servants. On
May 21, 1835, Lee arrived
in Albany where the survey
group was assembling.
Captain Talcott was already
there. They were delayed,
waiting for their instruments to arrive before
heading west and it would
be June before their departure. Lee’s official title in
the party was Assistant
Astronomer. Only a second
lieutenant, the army’s lowest commissioned officer,
he carried little status in the
group. Among other members of the crew were Will
Smith, James Irwin,
William Stone, and Washington Hood, the Topographer. Besides Captain Talcott, all of the officers were
lieutenants and outranked
Lee.
The survey party took
the Erie Canal to Buffalo.
As a government expedition, they probably traveled
by canal freighter. They
packed mainly their survey
instruments and other special supplies such as custom paper for observation
documentation and books
of astronomical, geometrical, and logarithmic tables.
They carried firearms. As
army uniforms were too
expensive to use as work
outfits, the men wore civilian clothes. Passage was
about $3 per person and the
363-mile canal trip would
have taken about six to
eight days. Historically,
topographers and engineers
bought or hired wagons and
boats at the place they
needed them, as the U.S.
Army had little equipment
at that time and probably
none around the Great
Lakes area. When they
arrived at Buffalo June 7,
they hired a boat and
bought food and camping
equipment. They probably
also picked up some contract employees to do cooking, hunting, or moving the
camp, although they had at
least one civilian that had
come with them. By July 8,
the survey party was in
Huron, Ohio, to begin their
work.
The crew did not trudge
the line mile-by-mile
through the wilderness.
They made calculations to
measure latitude and longitude from different points,
or stations, along the line.
There were three main stations, but they took observations from other locations as well. Huron, Ohio,
was the first main station.
They began measuring the
southern-most bend of
Lake Erie as this is the geographic point in which it
appears. They used special
instruments.
The most important
instrument was a portable
meridian transit. It allowed
Lee to measure latitude and
longitude. On clear nights,
Lee would point this transit
into the heavens and follow
the path of the moon and
stars as they crossed their
highest point, the celestial
meridian. Calculations,
combining these celestial
observations with exact
time using a timepiece
called a chronometer,
determined latitude and
longitude. The party also
carried several theodolites,
a telescope-type instrument
which often contained a
built-in compass. It was
used to view distant marks
more distinctly and to measure vertical and horizontal
angles. Other equipment
would include measuring
chains and several kinds of
compasses.
The party spent about
two weeks around Huron.
They continued north
across the lake, taking
observations from Gull
Island, located south of
Pelee Island just inside the
U.S. line and underwater
today. The party continued
north to Point Pelee to
record another set of measurements. From there, Lee
and Washington Hood
hired a cutter to take them
to Pelee Island for additional observations. By the
end of July, the survey
party had set up Station #2
on Turtle Island to survey
the Maumee Cape. On July
31, 1835, Lee wrote a letter
from Turtle Island to Lieutenant George Cullum who
was his temporary replacement in the Engineer
Department in Washington.
Lee didn’t much like
Northwest Ohio. He wrote:
“Our present abode may
have many beauties, but to
me they are as yet undiscovered. The country
around savors marvelously
of bilious fevers and seems
to be productive of nothing
more plentifully than of
mosquitos and snakes.”
Lee mentions snakes
because he surprised one
meanly-disposed creature
in an abandoned lighthouse
on Pelee Island. He and
Washington Hood were
intending to use the structure as a survey point. The
snake blocked their
entrance. Lee, thinking it
was poisonous, quickly dispatched it. It was most likely a non-venomous Eastern
Fox snake, common to
Lake Erie, although it
resembles and mimics a
rattlesnake. Lee also picked
up some glass lamp shades
that were lying about to
replace broken ones on
their own lamps, which
they used at night to read
their instruments.
Lee’s letter continued:
“Of the good people in this
country, we have seen nothing. We hear that about
Toledo they speak hardly of
us. Detroit is for us, our
young gentlemen say, for
they have all been there.”
Toledo certainly would
not look favorably on the
group as they were working
the line that could put that
city in Michigan. Lee knew
that, as he alludes in the
next paragraph.
“Hood and myself are in
high preparation for a trip
up the Maumee River to
make a survey from a little
above its intersection with
the due east line from the
south bend of Lake Michigan to this place– some 12
miles off. The boat and the
men are ready, it is a long
pull and we have to establish ourselves for the night
and among enemies too.
We should hardly get back
before a week–as the trian-
gulation must be done with
accuracy to transfer the latitude and longitude from
this place, there.”
Lee concluded the letter
by grumbling that he was
often kept awake nights,
especially if they were
clear skies for celestial
observations and he complained of constant interruptions during the day.
This letter places Lee at
Turtle Island July 31 readying for the trip up the
Maumee River. The party
would travel in a hired cutter, and if the wind was
good, make the 12 miles
upriver where the Fulton
Line crossed in six hours.
Andrew Talcott’s log from
the survey indicates that
the pocket chronometer,
which Lee and crew would
need, was taken up the
Maumee on August 17. On
that day in 1835, Robert E.
Lee arrived in northern
Wood County. As Lee stated in his letter, the party
was to establish themselves
somewhere slightly above
this line.
Lee mentions triangulation in this same letter. This
is a method to calculate
distance between two
points without having to
walk to the second point,
ideal for establishing a line
from one side of a river to
the other which was difficult to do with chains or
measuring tapes.
Lee helped prepare the
map for these Maumee
River observations, as his
is one of the names on it.
The map indicates that Lee
did several triangulations
from the Rossford side of
the river. He created the
baseline of the triangle
along the river near an area
that was a popular nesting
site for eagles, calculated
the angles and determined
distances to points on the
Toledo-side of the Maumee
River without having to
cross the river. It is likely
that Lee and the survey
party set up camp in the
vicinity of now Eagle Point
Colony. It was not the
pleasant site it is today. In
1835, it was a thicklywooded, mosquito-infested
God-forsaken piece of real
estate. The crew worked
the area for three or four
days.
By August 21, 1835,
Lee was in Detroit. He had
been receiving letters here
since July 1. All were most
likely from his wife, who
had given birth to a daughter July 12. At least one
letter begged him to come
home. He wrote back from
Detroit he could not. On
August 31, the surveyors
arrived in Michigan City,
Indiana, on Lake Michigan,
to measure its southern
bend. This was Station #3,
and the group finished up
here on September 10.
Robert E. Lee’s survey
work remained without
effect, as did the entire project. Although the results
were presented to the First
Session of the 24th Congress in December of 1835
verifying that the Fulton
line was correct, it didn’t
matter. Jackson awarded
the strip to Ohio and as a
consolation prize, accorded
Michigan the Upper Peninsula, which was actually
planned to be part of Wisconsin. After all, Wisconsin
was still a territory with
more wildlife than people
and was of no use to the
schemers in Washington.
As always, politics dictated
the outcome.
It is also to be noted that
Andrew Jackson’s double
game to secure Ohio’s electoral votes in the 1836 election also failed. Ohio went
to Whig, William Henry
Harrison, who captured all
21 votes. Michigan, which
was recognized as a state
right before the election,
cast their three electoral
votes for Martin Van
Buren, who ultimately won
the presidency. Old Hickory miscued. He didn’t need
Ohio after all.
But if not for Jacksonian
politics, that great general
of the Confederacy would
have missed his only visit
to Northwest Ohio. As a
result, Robert E. Lee can be
added to the famous and
acclaimed who have paid a
call to Wood County during
its past history.

Fort Industry Chapter of DAR commemorates
War of 1812 Bicentennial during Navy Week events energy efficiency workshops to hold fall meeting October 18
Debbie Dushane, regent
of the Fort Industry Chapter
of the DAR, recently celebrated two War of 1812 Bicentennial events in the same
day.
As part of Navy Week,
several ships from the U.S.
Navy and Coast Guard, the
Canadian Navy, and the Flagship Niagara, a reproduction
of Commodore Perry’s ship
during the Battle of Lake
Erie in 1813, sailed into
downtown Toledo.
Dressed in her War of
1812 costume, Ms. Dushane
attended a naturalization ceremony held aboard the
U.S.S. DeWert, a guided
missile frigate based in
Naval Station Mayport,
Florida. A total of 24 people
from 17 different countries
Ms. Dushane met with Wesley Heerssen, captain of the
Brig Niagara during its stop in Toledo for Navy Week.
Debby Dushane, regent of the Fort Industry Chapter of the
DAR, recently attended a naturalization ceremony in her
War of 1812 period costume.
became new American citizens on the ship and were
welcomed by several civic
organizations, including the
DAR.
Later that same day, Ms.
Dushane attended a reception
aboard the DeWert, along
with officers and crew of that
ship and the other ships in
port. She received a lapel pin
with the words “Don’t Give
Up the Ship” from Wesley
Heerssen, captain of the Niagara.
Captain Heerssen explained that the Niagara is a
museum and educational ship
based in Erie, Pennsylvania.
The original Niagara was the
vessel to which Commodore
Oliver Hazard Perry transferred from his flagship, the
U.S. Brig Lawrence, after it
was heavily damaged by
British fire.
Commodore Perry won
the Battle of Lake Erie,
which was the decisive battle
in the War of 1812. On its
way back to home port from
the Toledo celebration, the
reproduction
Niagara
stopped at Put-in-Bay, site of
the Battle of Lake Erie.
Toledo was the third stop
of the six-city Navy Week
tour. Navy ships rarely visit
the Great Lakes today except
for commemorative events.
Owens Community College has been selected by
the Ohio Environmental
Protection Agency to receive a $4,314 environmental education grant to
enhance the energy efficiency of homes through
free educational workshops
within northwest Ohio.
The college, in collaboration with United North and
the East Toledo Family Center, will offer four environmental
sustainability
workshops to area residents
in October.
“Owens Community College is very appreciative to
the Ohio Environmental
Protection Agency for selecting the academic institution as a grant recipient,”
said Dr. Michael Bankey,
Owens associate vice president of Workforce and Community Services. “We look
forward to partnering with
United North and the East
Toledo Family Center and
provide educational workshops in which attendees
can learn about ways to
make their homes more energy efficient through environmental
conscious
techniques, which will result in energy-cost savings
for homeowners.”
The free educational
seminar, titled “Upgrading
Your Home’s Energy Efficiency,” is designed to provide
attendees
with
techniques to lower home
energy costs through envi-
ronmentally conscience activities.
The four-hour, hands-on
workshops,
taught
by
Owens instructors, will provide insight into such topics
as energy audits, prioritization of energy loses, insulation, sealing air leaks,
heating and cooling systems, duct sealing, windows
and lighting from an energy
efficiency perspective.
Additionally, class participants will have the opportunity to participate in
caulking and sealing and
heat shrink window installation exercises, among many
other hands-on activities.
Attendees also will receive
a home energy savings kit
for use in their own home.
The first two workshops
will take place Tuesday, October 16 and Thursday, October 18, at the Chester J.
Zablocki Senior Center on

covered several times.
N Collection will resume on Monday,
November 26 for the final sweep.
LEAVES PUT OUT ONCE
CREWS HAVE BEEN BY WILL

PREPARE:
N Rake leaves to the right-of-way, the
area near the curb or edge of the
street, but NOT in the street.
N Pile the leaves in the right-of-way.
Do NOT bag leaves as city crews use
trailer-mounted leaf vacuum units.
N Please refrain from piling leaves near
mailboxes and do not park in front of
or on any leaf piles, as it is difficult
to maneuver the hoses around parked
cars.
N There is NO leaf pick up in alleys.
N Keep the storm drains clear of leaf
debris. If you have a storm drain in
front of your home, remove the leaf
debris and add it to your leaf pile.
N This is a leaf pick up ONLY. Do not
mix branches and other debris with
the leaf piles, because crews will
leave the entire pile.

nology to enhance their
independence with the
day/vocational habilitation
program for young adults.
The program fills a community need since there is an
overwhelming number of
students with autism ready
to graduate and an inadequate number of appropriate
services available to them.
This program will be a
“green” concept because the
participants will have the
opportunity to work in a
greenhouse, community
garden, reusing, refurbishing and repurposing items.
They will have the opportunity to develop personal
microenterprise businesses
in an area of their own
choosing.
Participants also will
have the option to work in
the community with appropriate visual, social, or job
coaching support as needed.
The philosophy is one of
empowerment of the participants teaching them communication, functional life
and job skills.

SECTION 4. Within the CRA the percentage of the tax exemption on the increase in the assessed valuation and the
term of those exemptions shall be negotiated on a case-bycase basis in advance of construction or remodeling occurring according to the rules outlined in ORC 3735.67. The
results of the negotiations as approved by the City Council
will be set in writing in a CRA Agreement as outlined in ORC
3735.671.
(a) Up to twelve (12) years, and up to seventy-five percent (75%) for the remodeling of existing commercial structures and upon which the cost of remodeling is at least
$5,000, as described in ORC Section 3735.67, the term and
percentage of which shall be negotiated on a case-by-case
basis in advance of remodeling occurring.

Put pumkins to use
in many different ways
Autumn is the season
when pumpkins are ripe for
the picking, and thousands of
people flock to local farms
and roadside vendors to select perfect pumpkins. Many
pumpkins are turned into
decorative jack-o'-lanterns
for Halloween, only to be
tossed in the trash come November 1. That could be because many people are
unaware of the various ways
they can put pumpkins to
good use.
Pumpkins are gourds and
members of the squash family and have been grown and
used for thousands of years.
Evidence suggests that
pumpkins date back to 7000
B.C., possibly originating in
Mexico. Today they are
widely used for decorating
around Halloween, but there
are many other things that
can be done with pumpkins.
• Create a food vessel.
Pumpkins can be transformed into bowls to hold
soup, punch, fruit, or even
dips. Make sure the pumpkin
has been cleaned well of its
pulp and seeds, as well as the
stringy flesh that is inside.
Rub the inside walls of the
pumpkin with oil to keep
them from drying out and
caving in, then fill with your
food of choice.
• Make pumpkin puree.
Puree from a pumpkin can be
used in all types of recipes,
from soups to baked goods.
The puree also can replace
the oil in cake recipes. Cut
the pumpkin and scoop out
the seeds and stringy membranes. Then place it cutside-down in a pan with a
little water in the bottom.
Bake at 350ºF for around 90
minutes. The flesh will become tender and easily removable. Blend the resulting
puree in a food processor and
reserve flesh for recipes.
Some pumpkins are sweeter
or better to use as part of
recipes. Check the variety
you're purchasing.
• Whip up a facial. Use
some pumpkin puree with a
little brown sugar and a dash
of milk to create a vitamin-
rich facial mask.
• Get illuminated. Turn
hollowed-out mini pumpkins
into candles. Melt soy wax,
beeswax or the gel type of
candle wax that can be found
at most craft stores. Add your
favorite scent and place a
wick into the bottom of the
pumpkin. Then pour the wax
into hallowed-out space and
allow it to harden. Try the
same thing with bumpy and
multi-colored gourds for
added decorating appeal.
• Turn the pumpkin into a
flower pot. Fill a hollow
pumpkin with soil. You may
not have to worry about
scraping the pumpkin completely clean because the
pulp can be used to help fertilize the potting soil. Plant
your favorite fall flowers into
the festive and earth-friendly
flower pot. When the pumpkin shows signs of rotting,
simply put the whole thing
into a traditional flower pot
or bury it directly in the
ground.
• Make pumpkin stock.
While vegetable or meatbased stocks may be the standards, pumpkin can be used
to make stock as well. Clean
out the seeds from the stringy
guts of the pumpkin and put
the guts into a pot filled with
water. Add celery, carrots or
any other aromatic vegetables for extra flavor. Allow to
boil for at least 30 minutes.
The stock is ready when it
begins to change color. Strain
and reserve the stock for use
in a variety of recipes.
• Add to compost bins.
Pumpkins are rich in zinc, vitamin A and vitamin C,
among other nutrients. You
can add the discarded pumpkins to your backyard compost bins to further replenish
the soil.
• Turn into a billowing
cauldron. Instead of a standard jack-o'-lantern, put a
glass jar into the carved
pumpkin, add dish soap and
hot water to the jar and then
put in a piece of dry ice. Bubbles and smoke will pour out
of the pumpkin to create a
spooktacular effect.

Pleasant fall afternoon
weather greeted 116 area
golfers who turned out September 24 to enjoy a day of
golf and support the Owens
Community College Alumni
Association scholarship programs.
The 10th annual Alumni
Association Golf Classic featured 29 teams and raised
more than $27,700 to benefit
scholarship endeavors.
“Owens Community College’s Alumni Association is
proud to once again host a
community-wide event in
which the proceeds benefit
students pursuing a college
education,” said Laura
Moore, Owens Alumni Association executive director and
event chair. “The golf classic
was a huge success and
would not have been possible
without the overwhelming
support of northwest Ohio’s
business and industry as well
as Owens alumni.”
Organized by the alumni
association’s steering committee, the golf outing was
held at Belmont Country
Club in Perrysburg. Participants enjoyed 18 holes of
golf, lunch, grazing dinner
and an awards program.
Taking home top honors in
the four-person scramble was
the Owen Athletics team.
Team members were Chris
Lieber, Charlie Upchurch,
Josh Williams and Jon Moyer.
Earning honors for the
longest drive was Chris
Lieber for the men and Lisa
Kurjan for the women.
Closest to the pin honors
for the men went to Rick
Johnson and for the women,
it was Lisa Kurjan.
Event sponsors were Hylant Group and Hylant Administrative Services. In
addition, Metzgers Printing +
Mailing served as the print
sponsor.
Since its inception, the
golf classic has netted more
than $288,800. Funds are
used to support Owens students pursuing a college education.
