 Treaty of Greenville - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Treaty of Greenville was signed at Fort Greenville (now Greenville, Ohio), on August 3, 1795 between a coalition of Native Americans ("Indians") and the United States following the Native American loss at the Battle of Fallen Timbers.
The treaty established what became known as the "Greenville Treaty Line", which was for several years a boundary between Native American territory and lands open to white settlers, although the treaty line was frequently disregarded by settlers as they continued to encroach on native lands guaranteed by the treaty.
The treaty line began at the mouth of the Cuyahoga River in present-day Cleveland and ran south along the river to the portage between the Cuyahoga and Tuscarawas River in what is now known as the Portage Lakes area between Akron and Canton.

 Andrew Jackson and Indian Removal
The following year, in the Treaty of Greenville, the tribes were forced to cede much of Ohio to the United States but still managed to retain a large part of the territory they had lost in earlier, fraudulent treaties.
In successive dealings with Indians in treaty negotiations, Jackson admitted bribing Indian chiefs to sign treaties by giving the chiefs their own private allotments that would allow them to stay behind while the rest of the tribe had to move away.
This infamous Treaty of New Echota (Dec. 1835) provided that the Cherokees would abandon all their lands east of the Mississippi and remove to the West in two years.
