- This 1938 black and white reenactment film “The Ohio Country” was presented by The Standard Oil Company of Ohio, narrated by George W. Srail, and produced by Escar Motion Picture Service. A group of pioneers gather at Manasseh Cutler Church in Ipswich, Massachusetts to reenact December 3, 1787, which was the beginning of a trip to the Northwest Territory to settle in the Ohio Country. The Rabbi speaks to the group before they leave on horses and in Conestoga wagons pulled by oxen (:44-4:11). The group arrives at a log and stone cabin. They continue on through the hilly woods and cross streams (4:12-5:33). Snow begins to fall and cover them and the ground (5:34-6:17). A black and white silhouette of the group on horses, walking, and driving wagons is framed against a light sky (6:19). The group reaches the Youghiogheny River in Pennsylvania. A man wearing a coonskin cap drinks crouches down and drinks directly from a stream (6:24-6:52). The group continues on through the woods before making camp. They make a fire, fanning it with pieces of cloth. A team of oxen are yoked together and walk down the stream. A man gets a shave with the barber using scissors. A man checks a dog’s ears (6:54-7:55). An ox is led into a makeshift shoeing stall. A hanging band is tightened around its stomach to take pressure off its legs. The leg to be shoed is roped into place. A new horseshoe is nailed into place (7:57-8:56). A man carries a two-man cross cut saw. Another uses an axe on one side of the tree. The two men begin sawing on the other side of it. The tree falls. A large group of men begin working on the timbered wood to create beams for a large boat. Oxen pull logs to the river’s edge where multiple logs are worked on. The boat begins to be constructed. Logs are burned out to be split to create sides. The boat is put into the water and the cabin on it completed before launching. A 1787 flag flies on it (8:57-14:00). They reach the Ohio River, where they are joined by the rest who had travelled overland to obtain supplies. The provisions and animals are loaded on a second boat (14:01-14:58). The boats pass Indian teepees along the shore (15:00-15:15). Heavy rain and fog set in and they miss the settlement on the shore of the Muskingum River before being towed back by soldiers in canoes. Indians arrive in canoes to trade furs and gather on the shore to watch. The pioneers and Indians mingle (15:17-17:39). The men use axes and begin clearing an area. A cornerstone is placed. Oxen pull away the felled trees. Walls are erected (17:41-20:00). The women and children join the men at the new settlement. A large group leaves a log cabin church following a wedding (20:02-20:55). A car drives down a road with late 1930s images behind it. The 1933-1935 SOHIO logo is shown (20:57-21:22).

I’m born and raised in MA who later lived for several years in Marietta, OH. Marietta is a beautiful town, a wonderful place to live and raise a family.
Born and spent the first 16 years of my life in Marietta.....most beautiful ground ever..someday i may return
My maternal gggg-grandparents the Ely's of Plymouth Mass were among these pioneers. They settled on Little Mountian Chardon OH
Awesome…. Thanks I’m se Ohio born. It is a really well done documentary
What a great film! Thanks for posting. Americans should be proud of the strong and intelligent New Englanders that brought civilization to the wilderness. Yankee ingenuity and organization, as well as plain hard work is what made America. Don't ever let the sick and twisted America-haters make you feel guilty about what your ancestors achieved.
Steve, Right on.
bboucharde Thanks! There's more of us than there are of them. They're just louder and we're too busy working to draw attention to ourselves.
Not a genocide fan personally
@@adanactnomew7085 name a country that didn't occupy from some type of conquest?
@@Dingdongwitchisdead Basically none but that's not any justification. This is a bandwagon fallacy. Just because your friends are jumping off a bridge doesnt mean it's okay.
The Indians around Ohio didn’t have teepees. They had wigwams. He also pronounced Gnadenhutten wrong.
my grandma remembered both teepees and wigwams. she was born in 1913.
All depends. I know the Hopewell culture from where I'm from used wigwams and longhouses . But if memory serves me right, and if I was taught correctly, the Shawnee tribes further south on the Ohio river used tipis
I had a wife from there. Good woman. I was just a bad man. Old buckeye long gone
It just shows us that nobody from outside the Tuscarawas Valley can pronounce Gnadenhutten correctly.
produced by standard oil don’t expect historical accuracy
Great video. I can't imagine making a video like this today. I don't think we could find enough men who know how to use a broadaxe to make it.
Imagine accidentally taking a chunk out of your leg back then. A lot of people died from simple infections.
My ancestors were revolutionary war vets and left for Ohio some time around 1812, they settled in Picaway county.
Really great video.
These latest generations wouldn’t stand a chance…
Northeast Ohio used to be part of Connecticut
It's crazy how Ohio used to be a important state. Now it's about the most average state. Nothing too good nothing too bad. Except fentanyl.
You have no idea what Ohio has to offer. Use google before making comments like that.
@@michaelmeden9117 I'm a Homestead-Miami Floridian that move to Ohio so it's very depressing to me here in Lancaster. Except 4th of July they shoot fireworks off the top of our city Mountain.
These fellers sure make Ole’ mikey dewine look like the unskilled housewife that he is.
doesnt take much effort to do that. not to impugn them fellers efforts in any way.
We love ohio and her beautiful sapphires and sheraps 7.5
Originally the area of Ohio was forested. The trees were cleared by pioneers for farming. Never mind the fact that the Indians already lived there. Then there were the wars with the Indians.
If we don't do something now the same thing will happen to us now due to South Americans.
Exactly people acting like it's their shit
It was called the “Ohio Company”, not the Ohio country.
Those are 2 different things silly goose
For those woke people out there, can you name me one society, one land, that was always occupied and never subjecated or taken through war???
Svalbard
Antarctica
North Sentinal Island
@@beepseatsfindingfoodtreasu8756 Nazis took over Antarctica in the 30s.
i suspect there are rather more fur hats than worn historically lol.
3:27 theres always that one guy at reenactments thats just phoning it in. come on dude, that hats so farbe it gave me ebola!
ohio welcomes you!
That’s why there’s a Boston in ohio 😂
"...religious freedom..." sure, as long as you weren't Jewish or Muslim.
And?
They didn't want Catholics, either.
