A summary of the early history (1796 founding-1836 incorporation) of Cleveland, Ohio, the city that I was born in and have been raised by.

Great video
Mr. Beat Thanks!!! Your videos are super interesting and well done!
A nice surprise to see you here
Goddamn this is the quality content that I want. I’m shocked how little views this video has for how well produced it is
Wow that means a lot! Hopefully it gets more views someday :)
@@geography_joe you are so underrated
Joe: I saw your comment about slowing down your speech . . . a lot. An earlier poster here made that request before I could, and I can only encourage you to do so. NE Ohio native here, and I thirst for more historical knowledge relevant to my earlier years. Continue your passion, my good sir!
Great work. I have a picture of my grandmother at two years old in 1909 standing on the front porch of a fine house on Kinsman Ave. Later, there is another shot of the house going downhill in 1946. It's gone now with a parking lot in that space
The history of this city happens so quickly. My great-grandmother was born in East Cleveland along Euclid Avenue in the early 20th century. Theres no longer a house where she lived.
@@geography_joe I pay closer attention to Dayton, where I grew up. Hundreds of beautiful houses have gone under the wrecking ball. Now there are only three left in the downtown area. ( do a street view on 198 to 204 W Monument, S-side, 45402 ). They are all fantastic houses, but nothing special in their time. - - - - - Are there good image repositories of the old Cleveland neighborhoods that once were? I'd post Dayton's, but I can't do convenient URLs as a reader/lurker.
You forgot to mention Lorenzo Carter, the first permanent settler of Cleveland, who ran the settlement while Moses Cleaveland lived back in Connecticut and got rich.
I'm from Cleveland Ohio seen this video and it's just amazing! learning more about our town and it's history!! 🎉🎉 I just love this! Thank you for spreading of Information and knowledge!!
Glad you enjoyed! Cleveland used to be Dubai man!
Great job young man. I have deep roots in Garfield Hts., when all the steel mills in Pittsburgh shut down after World War II, my family all moved to Cleveland because of jobs. Always be proud of your home town, no matter where your life takes you in this world.
Couldn't agree more. North Coast Rocks!
Concise history lesson, great job! I visited Cleveland (Independence) a few times for business between 2001 & 2004. Good memories.
Very nicely done! I just moved to Cleaveland a few months ago, and I learned a lot from your video. You speak well, and it is apparent that you are an avid history buff.
Shoot I'm just seeing this, but still thank you! I'm really glad you enjoyed the video, and I hope you're enjoying your first summer in Cleveland! I think Cleveland is one of the best places to be during the summer, but our winters definitely bring the annual average down
Great job! Very well organized, explained, and articulated!
Thanks! Took a while but it paid off in the end!
I can tell you're very passionate about the work you do. And, its nice to see someone else knowing the war that once happened between Ohio City and Cleveland. :) Keep on doing what you love, you will find great success in that!
Great video. I think a cool video idea would be the migration of Chinatown throughout the decades. I think it started off just north of public square, then got moved to superior and 23rd, then moved once again to the payne and 30s area
I've never been aware of this actually, I'll start doing some research. Maybe a video will be made about that!
Great job! Thank you! You rock & Cleveland Rocks!
Bruh this is so awesome Joe, i hope this channel grows and grows cause ive never seen anything like this on youtube
Great job. Im from Columbus. My moms side of the family is from Elyria. I like that you didn't edit your speaking with a bunch of jump cuts. The on location filming was great. I can tell you put in a lot of work. Well done!!!
Thank you! Yeah all this took me about a month to make, lots of locations and drawing and finding information (had to go to the cleveland historical museum to find books). Worth it though!
Wow! Hand drawn maps put this on another level. Lived all over Clevo. Loved it. Now I know it better, thanks.
Thank you very much!
Very interesting and informative, Joe. Keep the history/geography videos coming. Thanks a lot.
Mark Miller Thank you! I appreciate your comment just as much :) keeps me motivated!
Excellent video I moved to Cleveland in 1991 and one of the primary reasons where the Metroparks there is no other city that I’m aware of that has a Metropark system as amazing as the one in Cleveland. It’s a genius plan executed perfectly. I’m a bicyclist and have the emerald necklace many times over 100 miles of connected beautiful Parkway, I believe it is Cleveland’s number one asset
This video made me homesick! I was born in St Alexis Hospital (now a vacant lot on Broadway Ave) and grew up in Parma. There’s a library at the Western Reserve Historical Society @ University Circle that you might like, when it reopens due to the Covid-19.
I actually went to that library to get most of the information I used to make this video! They were really happy with what I was doing, and they actually gave me a free library pass, so I was there like 6 times while I did this. Super friendly people working there! Also, I was born in rainbow babies hospital :)
Great video, sir! I thoroughly enjoyed it and your presentation was awesome. Please keep up the good work!
Thank you! I’ve lost my voice but as soon as thats back I’m gonna be making a video!
Well done. Love it.
This is absolutely amazing I didn’t know all this information and I’ve lived here all my life
(Give or take a few years) (15 years) (I’m 17)
geo joe is the man. please. keep making cleveland content, someone needs to do this
Thank you dude :) I'd love to keep making Cleveland content, if only there was more of a market for it!
You are the best person ever on TH-cam I hope you and your family have a awesome thanksgiving this month
I loved the video, Joe!
hey man - this is great. Nice work
That was really cool. Good job bro...👍. E.L. Cleveland, Ohio
Thanks man :) working on a video as we speak!
Fantastic video. great job!
please continue
Awesome Video!
Very well done! You’re a natural educator! I’m from West Boulevard neighborhood of Cleveland. Love the history of our city 🤘
That's awesome! I was raised by a west-sider but moved to Shaker when I was 7. So I've been indoctrinated in both of Cleveland's cultures :) its fascinating to me just how different the two really are.
Dude I'm going to visit Cleveland this winter and thanks to this video finally I know a lot of Cleveland's history! And greetings from Puerto Rico!!
Oh cool! What are you planning on seeing/doing? Be careful man its freezing here 😅
@@geography_joe Man that cold, that snow, the people in Cleveland and those MetroParks... I'm in love with Cleveland!! Its like having a big city full of big buildings and awesome things and then just a few minutes in car and you have an awesome park full of nature and animals. 10/10 to your city and I dont know how Cleveland is not that popular having all those things.
ElMitico4k I’m not sure why i didn’t reply to this but you’re SO RIGHT. We have so many things to do and things to see and its all so close together with barely any crowds to share it with. I LOVE this city and I’m so happy i was born here
The 🔥 land
That's where I live
SCHLENK
This was fantastic! Keep up the great work.
Thank you for this CLE 101. My channel is all about local nature and I similarly deliver it POV style. There's a certain charisma to it. Bravo, man.
great work brother, I was looking for such kind of information
Enjoyed the video. Great information
I’m Irish, and I’ve always wanted to know more about Cleveland, Ohio! What is the Irish presence like there? Ohio is a very impressive state!
You would love it here, our St Patrick’s Day Parades in downtown Cleveland are always lit
Its very very irish!!! My whole dads side immigrated to cleveland from ireland during the potato famine. Originally, we had to live in ohio city (irish weren’t allowed in cleveland) and today my fam lives in the far west side suburbs. Cleveland is one of the most irish cities, and our st pattys day parade is incredible! The whole city is hammered by 2pm!
The Irish community is huge here in Cleveland!❤
Very cool, Geography Joe - we liked this a lot! Thanks!
Thank you!
Great job!
Thanks!
Glad the algorithm finally brought me here. Great video! Greetings from the Firelands.
I really enjoyed this, thank you! Now I have a deeper understating of East and West in Cleveland's origins, among other things. Thank you!
As my father likes to say, "Hurray for Cleveland!" Seriously, I've visited relatives there so many times, and my mother's originally from there.
Good Job Joe! Keep up the good work involving Ohio and the history to be shared with the masses.
Aye geo joe raw this is awesome bruv. Cleveland is tha city where we come from so rah run. Bro the info is fantastic 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Awesome video. I grew up in Ohio and my high school was part of the Fireland's Conference. I never knew where that name came from. Now I do!
Very informative lived here my whole life and you taught me some knowledgeable things
Thank you I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Great vid. :)
That was awesome!!
Let’s go cuyahoga county I should do some research on South Euclid (where I live)
I live right by the border of South Euclid!
Agree! That's where I'm from as well. I think all the cool people came from here : )
If the SE-L library was still in it's original home of the Mansion you would find plenty of history resources. I grew up in South Euclid, and yes, all the cool people are from there, 😉...Grew up on Plainfield Rd. Though I'm much older than the general audience, watched this because my family was among the original settlers of Cleveland, and I'm looking for as many resources as I can about those early years.
@@makeapositivedifference yooo I remember the old library I used to love looking at the fish tank when I was little. my grandparents live on Plainfield!
@@bingbing4332 Awesome! Thanks for bringing a smile to my face thinking about my childhood!😁
Well done, sir. Cool. I'm from Cleveland and this is the first time I've heard some of those info.
After seeing a few videos from you bro, I'm subscribing
Wonderful Video !
Thanks for the video about East Cleveland Geography Joe.
Of course. Hope it was a good synopsis
You should do a video on Dayton Ohio
I won’t lie, I've never even really been to Dayton. Just driven through it
Geography Joe Dayton is a really underrate city with a lot of history, it would be neat to see a video like this about Dayton.
Nice video, Joe. I'll be looking for follow-up videos from you.
Thank you!
Thank for the excellent history lesson on Cleavland! I learned several things & appreciate the great work you did on maps and showing the emerging areas incorporation. The only request I have, maybe bc I'm 65, is to slow it down a tad and talk a little slower, just enough for us oldies to catch up! Even so, a very nice piece of work.
Thank you so much! Yeah, in the future with these videos I want to make the pace a lot slower.
NIce presentation, well done.
Very well done!
Thank you very much!
Kudos to you! You put a lot of hard work into this presentation. I live in Chicago but originally from Cleveland and I have truly learned a lot about my hometown. It makes me proud and even more proud to be from the same hometown as Steve Harvey.😊❤️
I didn't even know he was from here 😅 but I'm glad you enjoyed the video! I always say Chicago is like Cleveland, just 10x bigger haha
Funny, Steve Harvey claims he is a georgian now a days. How he denies his Cleveland roots. We dont like steve harvey anymore. He turned his back on us...what a jerk.
Nice! I'm from Parma and didn't even know half this stuff😅
Hope next time you show some interesting places in Cleveland
Am from west side Cleveland.
Great! Born in the Firelands West of Cleveland. Our role allegedly during Prohibition was quite large as well. Canada being only six miles away. Bomb City in the 70's during the Mafia restructure.
Hey, “DT!” I literally just stumbled upon this video in my feed, and though I haven’t watched it yet, the comments alone assure me I won’t be disappointed 😊 ok sorry, I get too wordy lol. Anyways, I was intrigued by your comment and was hoping I could ask you more about the “Firelands”, please? I was raised in Strongsville and lived there until I got married & now my husband and I live in Cleveland’s west side (I believe my location’s appropriate name is the ‘near west side’?), near the CLE/Lakewood border; along Lorain Ave. west of the West Blvd. neighborhood, but before West Park/Kamm’s corners. And because I’ve unfortunately never heard of the Firelands, I was hoping you might be able to give me more info or reference; only if you don’t mind, of course! Thanks so much in advance!!
@@heathercintheclefirelands is explained in the video 🙈
@@geography_joe thanks!
Fuck yeah!! Cleveland Rocks baby!! Born and raised and will always live here!!

This is great content, I hope to make a Cleveland video someday!
Well if you do make sure I know about it so I can help with some information :) I love my city and just want it to be given the credence its always deserved. Talk about a city with future potential, no natural disasters and infinite freshwater? In 50 years Cleveland will most certainly be where people are moving to.
@@geography_joe I feel the same way about Buffalo lol, they are similarly poised to make a resurgence imo, though I will concede Cleveland has a head start by virtue of being a bigger city.
@@TheDCShow0 At least Buffalo has the Bills and buffalo wings :) its a city everyones heard of. Great suburbs there too, I could see it
You should include the early settlement of "Pilgeruh" by missionaries from Moravia. David Zeisberger was their leader. Later, they moved south and founded Gnadenhutten. The earliest map the Cuyahoga valley was drawn by these missionaries before Moses Cleaveland arrived.
Great video I was born and raised in CLE and I learned some information thanks for sharing. Question have you done a video or can you do one on the different communities that reside within Cleveland?
I have done a brief video about the suburbs of Cleveland, but I wouldn't say I'm done. I'll probably make a new one in the same style sometime soon :)
I live in New York City, but I’m originally from Bedford Heights!!!
My boss at work lives in bedford heights! Clevelanders get around bro thats why we still matter! We bring our civic pride everywhere we go :)
So sorry to see you didn't include the early presence of the Old Stone Church.
Love the t-shirt!!!
Cleveland Is MY hometown as well but Im from the east side, but yes Cleveland and Ohio City fought at that bridge, police had to get involved BUT Ohio City would become in debt so they eventually annexed with Cleveland, which East Cleveland probably will real soon too... It is said that General Moses Cleaveland founded the city and never came back, way back in 1796. Im not a hostorian, I just love learning about the history of my hometown! Did you know the Arch lamps were invented right here in northeast ohio and some of the first ones were used on public square?
Cuyahoga 🔥💧?
Dorky AF, but informative and fun to watch.
Did the surveyors of Cleveland originally settle in Euclid?
My home town!
I'm confused. On the original charter for village of Cleveland and city of Cleveland, it is spelled "Cleveland" why did it then continue as "Cleaveland"?
Cool
More about Ohio, please. Maybe come over to Sandusky. (Hint hint)
Living in Sandusky must be so fun, I go there every summer to either go to cedar point or the islands. For a town with just 25,000 people there is a LOT going on in Sandusky.
Very nice place Cleveland
Theres one pressing question out of all this though. (Great information by the way) Are you a Browns fan?
wjen u say clevland rocks i wonder how is the weather how are the taxes and job salary
Will Cleveland incubate SpikeBoarding Skiing?
I'm new to your channel.
Greater Cleveland Expands Role as Home of the International Environmental Art Movement as the Primary Economic Engine for the Region and as the 'Cradle for a Universal Culture of Peace' for All Living Things
the Worlds Children. '........The Global Home of the Environmental Art Movement is the region in Northern Ohio that is noted for its growing concentration of Sustainable Design and Technology Industries. Geographically, the region occupies the same area as the Greater Cleveland Area where it is centered and where most of the companies are located. It is in the northeastern part of Ohio, an area stretching from the south end to Akron-Canton, Lorain in the west and Youngstown in the east.
It is visualized as the home for many of the world's largest technology corporations, as well as thousands of small start ups working on a sustainable future. The term ICEALITY is from the 'Theory of Iceality on Environmental Arts' is now generally used as a metonym for the global cultural of peace sector.

Thirty Year Cleveland History of the Iconic 'People Not Mascots' Logo
Artist: David Jakupca
Acrylic on Canvas 22" x 28" 1992 Signed Lower Right
The 'People Not Mascots' Logo is meant to be a Native American protest caricature of the racists Chief Wahoo logo of the Cleveland Indians Baseball team that lost to the Chicago Cubs in the 2016 World Series. It was originally designed and painted in 1992 by David Jakupca at the historic ARK in Berea Eco-Museum for the Committee of 500 Years of Dignity and Resistance along with the Lake Erie Native American Council (LENAC) incorporating elements of the Theory of Iceality on Environmental Arts. The 'People not Mascots' Logo has drawn criticism from Cleveland sportswriters, fans and local businessmen, but received immediate acceptance among humanitarian, religious groups and Native Americans.
The Cleveland 'People not Mascots' Logo gained international popular attention when it was it exhibited by ICEA at the 1993 United Nations World Conference on Human Rights held in Vienna, Austria.
It is the most widely known anti-racist logo and has changed the way people view the trillion dollar international sports industries by sparking the social justice movement in professional sports.
Cleveland does tend to get the ball rolling on these things considering our diverse and spread-out population. To not notice how diverse Cleveland is is just a byproduct of never leaving your neighborhood in my opinion
Hmmmm, I’ll have to do my own video next.
I’m from Washington court house, OH. A town of 14,000 people in the county of . . . NO ONE GIVES A SHIT!!!! 🤣 🤣 like nothing interesting comes from my small ass town. Haha
Nice vid! Now living in Cleveland myself. Just came here a few months ago. Read a lot on its history by reading Cleveland Past and Present by Maurice Jobin. Basically a collection of writings from the first pioneers onward some time during its early formation.
Who knew Cleveland had so much to offer and such a storied history so closely recorded !? Anyway… thanks for the vid!
From 2023 …,you did pretty good …
Thanks, i feel like i should get back into this stuff
How did you learn about the history of cleveland?
Lots of research!
Also don't forget it is also the home of Joe Schuster and Jerry Siegel the men who made Superman
I'm interested in viewing this video because I was raised in East Cleveland.
I actually have a video about east cleveland on my channel too
Represent!
Incorporation?
Nice work. I'm also a geography joe. Check out the map room at CPL downtown if you get a chance.
Hopefully they let me take a map or two! Still figuring out future video plans.
According to genealogy done on my family, my early grandfather was the first Caucasian child born in Cleveland. After being cheated out of property, the family continued west eventually settlin in & around northern Indiana. One brother continued west, years later, ending up in Iowa.
Flats look like a Scooby-Doo ghost town
Very nice reserch - oops I dropped the "a".
😂😂
This Cleveland gal thinks you did an amazing job. Well done
