t Ordinance provided that the Territory of the United States Northwest of the River Ohio should ultimately be divided into not less than three nor more than five states. In carrying out' the pro visions of the Ordinance each contemplated state (with the exception of Ohio) went through tlie various grades of territorial government before arriving at statehood. Michigan, in 1796 when the British troops evacuated the western posts, was included in the County of Wayne (erected August 15, one of the counties of the Northwest Territory. Upon the formation of Indiana Terri tory the eastern half of Michigan was left with the Ohio country, as the remnant of the Northwest Territory, but upon the organization of the State of Ohio this region was severed from that state and was attached to Indiana Terri tory. Early in 1803 the citizens in the neighborhood of Detroit began aggres sive movements for the establishment of an independent territorial government.
