I don't know anything about the specifics of the Lumberjack's War. I merged information that was in what appeared to be a duplicate article [1] named the Rush-Bagot Agreement into this one [2]. I didn't bother to validate any of the info from the other article and, not to cast aspersions, but the other article was written by two anonymous IPs. So if anything here seems squiggly, go ahead and remove it. older≠wiser 02:33, 30 Sep 2004 (UTC)
The Aroostook War was in the late 1830s and this treaty had nothing to do with the border dispute in question, which was resolved by the Webster-Ashburton Treaty. I've moved the information there.
The following request to move a page has been added to Wikipedia:Requested moves as an uncontroversial move, but this has been contested by one or more people. Any discussion on the issue should continue here. If a full request is not lodged within five days of this request being contested, the request will be removed from WP:RM. —Dekimasuよ!03:46, 20 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
There are several errors of fact on this particular article that I suggest be changed. The Rush-Bagot Treaty did not become a treaty approved by Congress until the year 1818. In the year 1817, Acting Secretary of State Richard Rush and British Minister to Washington Charles Bagot exchanged a series of notes. The notes exchanged between Rush and Bagot in 1817 actually constitute the "Rush-Bagot Agreement" which is distinct from the "Rush-Bagot Treaty" (ratified by US Congress onApril 28, 1818). The Rush-Bagot Agreement stipulated that British North America and the United States could each maintain one vessel (not more than 100 tons) on Lake Ontario and Lake Champlain. The remaining Great Lakes could harbor two vessels from British North America and two vessels from the United States. It was an agreement of demilitarization, but it did not completely eradicate all military vessels from these waters. Looking forward to hearing thoughts and suggestions on this matterDdperk80 (talk) 20:59, 1 November 2010 (UTC)Ddperk80[reply]
