===Connecticut Settlers Form the Scioto Land Company (1802)===
On [[May 5]], [[1802]] a group of prospective settlers founded the Scioto Company at the home of Rev. Eber B. Clark in [[Granby, Connecticut]] for the purpose of forming a settlement between the [[Muskingum River]] and [[Great Miami River]] in the [[Ohio Country]]. [[James Kilbourne]] was elected president and [[Josiah Topping]] secretary (McCormick 1998:7). On [[August 30]], [[1802]] [[James Kilbourne]] and Nathaniel Little arrived at Colonel [[Thomas Worthington (governor)|Thomas Worthington]]’s home in [[Chillicothe, Ohio]]. They tentatively reserved land along the [[Scioto River]] on the [[Pickaway Plains]] for their new settlement (McCormick 1998:17).
 
-->
On [[October 5]], [[1802]] The Scioto Company met in [[Granby, Connecticut]] and decided not to purchase the lands along the [[Scioto River]] on the [[Pickaway Plains]], but rather to buy land 30 miles farther north from Dr. [[John Stanbery]] and his partner, an [[American Revolutionary War]] general, [[Jonathan Dayton]]. Sixteen thousand acres (65 km²) were purchased along the Whetsone River (now known as the [[Olentangy River]]) at $1.50 per acre (McCormick 1998:19-27). This land was part of the [[United States Military Lands]] surveyed by Israel Ludlow in 1797 and divided into townships 2.5 miles square (McCormick 1998:29-30).

On [[May 7]], [[1803]] [[James Kilbourne]] arrived at what is now Worthington to inspect the Scioto Company’s purchase. A work party of seven hired laborers, paid $12 per month each, soon began work clearing the forest (McCormick 1998:29).

On [[August 10]], [[1803]] the Scioto Company voted to name the village for [[Thomas Worthington (governor)|Thomas Worthington]], one of Ohio's first two senators, and for each member to contribute $2 (about four days wages) to support a library.
 
* Added plot summaries to the leads of [[Goldfinger (film)]], [[On Her Majesty's Secret Service (film)]], [[Diamonds Are Forever (film)]], [[The Man with the Golden Gun (film)]], [[The Spy Who Loved Me (film)]], [[A View to a Kill]] and [[Licence to Kill]]. ([[User:IzzyVanHalen|Callum J. Stewart]] 14:19, 24 April 2007 (UTC)) EDIT: added summaries to the leads of [[Dr. No (film)]], [[Live and Let Die (film)]] and [[For Your Eyes Only (film)]] ([[User:IzzyVanHalen|Callum J. Stewart]] 22:34, 24 April 2007 (UTC))
In September [[1803]] the first settlers departed Connecticut by horse. Ezra Griswold was the lone settler who traveled by oxcart. With this he is officially the first settler of Worthington, beating his fellow Company men to the site. By December [[1803]], Worthington was divided into 160, three quarter acre city lots with a five acre public green in the center of the village. Thirty seven persons bid between $53 and $0.25 to select a lot. Those who bid nothing were given a choice of the remaining lots. Farm lots, ranging from 20 to 130 acres and averaging 93 acres, were sold off in the same way. Both the Episcopal Church and Worthington Academy were given an 80 acre farm lot and 20 acre wood lot to provide financial support.
* Added a plot summary to [[You Only Live Twice (film)|You Only Live Twice]]. [[User:Editus|Editus]] 1800 UTC 23.4.07 EDIT: did the same for [[Thunderball (film)|Thunderball]] 1907 UTC 23.4.07
* Overhauled the [[Octopussy]] page to resemble CR (06), still needs referenceing, but got rid of useless trivia and put in [[Talk:Octopussy]]. [[User:SpecialWindler|SpecialWindler]] 00:18, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
* Added the template above with the assessment statistics by quality.[[User:SpecialWindler|SpecialWindler]] 23:15, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

===Land is Distributed, and the Scioto Company Disbands (1804-5)===
{{col-end}}
By [[August 11]], [[1804]] the plat maps were completed, payments or notes promising payments collected and deeds prepared for all sixteen thousand acres of the Scioto Company’s purchase (McCormick 1998:71). On [[January 28]], [[1805]], having completed its work of apportioning land and establishing the church, school and library, the Scioto Company was dissolved (McCormick 1998:76).

===Academy and Commercial Buildings (1808-11)===
{| class="wikitable" width="98%"

===War of 1812===
During the [[War of 1812]], several Worthington militia marched north with General [[William Hull]]'s army and were surrendered at Detroit on [[August 12]], [[1812]]. Orders issued by General William Henry Harrison from "Northwest Army Headquarters, Worthington, Ohio" on [[October 28]], [[1812]] indicate the commander, like his supply wagons, was using the road north from the capital.

* Survey articles to make sure a balance is maintained between film and novel references where applicable; it should not be forgotten that the books came first (there are occasional articles such as [[List of James Bond henchmen]] that profess to reference the novels but only contain film-based information). Articles on characters that appear in both the novels and the films should always include information on their literary counterparts.
The period from the 1820's to the Civil War was a time of slow growth for the sleepy village. In 1820 [[Aurora Buttles]] erected a Masonic hall. In 1826 the Columbus and Sandusky Turnpike was incorporated (now Ohio State Rt. 23) to connect the center of the state to Lake Erie, further cementing the importance of High Street.
*Occasionally review all articles that have been placed on the [[:Wikipedia:WikiProject James Bond/Articles]] page for [[Special:Recentchangeslinked/Wikipedia:WikiProject James Bond/Articles|recent changes]].
*Cite sources on [[James Bond]]. This will greatly help it to featured status, the current Mission of the Week.
