The city of Vincennes is the County seat of Knox County, Indiana. ^[4] The name Indiana meant "Land of the Indians", and referred to the fact that most of the area north of the Ohio River was still inhabited by Native Americans. The Ohio River is the largest Tributary by volume of the Mississippi River. (Kentucky, South of the Ohio River, had been a traditional hunting ground for tribes that resided north of the river, and early American settlers in Kentucky referred to the North bank as the land of the Indians.

As governor, Harrison had wide ranging powers in the new territory including the authority to appoint all territory officials, the territorial legislature, and dividing the territory into districts. A primary responsibility as territorial governor was to obtain title to Native American lands so that white settlement could expand in the area and the region could attain statehood. Native Americans in the United States are the indigenous peoples from the regions of North America now encompassed by the continental United States ^[5] Harrison was also extremely eager to expand the territory for personal reasons, as his own political fortunes were tied to Indiana's rise to statehood. In 1803 President Thomas Jefferson granted Harrison authority to negotiate and conclude treaties with the Indians.

The State of Indiana ( was the 19th US state admitted into the union The Treaty of Grouseland in 1805 was thought by Harrison to have appeased Native Americans. But tensions remained high on the frontier and became much greater after the 1809 Treaty of Fort Wayne, in which Harrison illegally purchased more than 2,500,000 acres (10,000 km²) of American Indian land. The Treaty of Fort Wayne is an 1809 treaty that obtained 3000000 acres (approximately 12000 km² of American Indian land for the white settlers of Ohio ^[6]

In 1803 Harrison lobbied Congress to repeal the Article 6 of the Northwest Ordinance to permit slavery in the Indiana Territory. The Northwest Ordinance (formally An Ordinance for the Government of the Territory of the United States North-West of the River Ohio, and also known as the Freedom He claimed it was necessary to make the region more appealing to settlers and ultimately make the territory economically viable. Congress suspended the article for ten years and the territories covered by the ordinance were granted the right to decide for their selves whether to permit slavery. That same year Harrison had indenturing legalized by the territorial legislature which he had appointed. He then proceeded to attempt to have slavery legalized outright in both 1805 and 1807. His attempts caused a significant stir in the territory. In 1809 he found himself at odds with the legislature when the abolitionist party came to power. They promptly rebuffed many of his plans for slavery and repealed the indenturing laws he had passed in 1803. ^[7]

Jennings did this against the wishes of then-governor Thomas Posey. Thomas Posey ( July 9 1750 - March 29 1818) was a officer in the American Revolution, a General during peacetime Lt No action was taken on the legislation at the time though because of the outbreak of the War of 1812.

Jeffersonville (ˈdʒɛfɚsənˌvɪl is a city in Clark County, Indiana, along the Ohio River. ^[13] He further complicated matters by being a supporter of slavery much to the chagrin of opponents like Jennings, Dennis Pennington, and others who dominated the Territorial Legislature who sought to use the bid for statehood to permanently end slavery in the state.
