Western Reserve

Need to put something in here about the Western Reserve. A couple of lines. Connecticut had legitimate claims to Ohio at one time. Somehow, nowdays, this seems pretty cheeky, but does show aggressive nature of early colonists. May have been other claims as well by other colonies. See Northwest Territory. Unbelievably overreaching! Student7 (talk) 19:48, 9 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sons of Liberty = instigators

The Sons of Liberty were the instigators for an otherwise lackadaisical populace. They manipulated Boston opinion. They didn't really affect rural opinion that much and people outside cities were somewhat alarmed at revolting against the crown, despite all kids history books stating just the opposite. It wasn't quite that simple. Rural people have always been conservative. Student7 (talk) 02:23, 3 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

That's nice. Feel better? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 100.11.126.230 (talk) 21:21, 2 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

massive deletions

One editor has made massive deletions covering agriculture and French Canadians. He made no effort to explain why and made the false statement that "OR" is involved (OR says that statements have to be based on reliable sources). it's false because every paragraph is fully sourced using multiple scholarly studies. Yes, the French Canadians are really important. Yes, the transformation of agriculture is really important say the scholars. If there is a disagreement then it should be discussed here. (for the record i wrote a small portion of the deleted text). Rjensen (talk) 20:13, 30 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
