Mahoning County is near the north-east corner of Ohio, in the area that had been home to the Erie. These are a people who were defeated and absorbed by the Seneca Iroquois before they could be studied by early explorers; they had disappeared completely by 1660. Ohio did not become a state until 1803, so Mahoning county did not exist when the Erie lived in that area.

The real name of the tribe was Erielhonan, meaning "long tail" and they spoke an Iroquoian language.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
