Description
Photograph
of a
portrait
of
Joseph
Vance
(1786-1852)
who
served
as
Ohio's
governor
from
1836-1838
.
Vance
was
elected
as
Ohio's
governor
in
1836
,
becoming
the
first
Whig
Party
candidate
elected
in the
state
.
During
his
term
as
governor
,
Vance
supported
state
funding
for
public
schools
and
canal
construction
. He also
worked
to
abolish
capital
punishment
in
Ohio
. He had an
excellent
reputation
as
governor
until
he
supported
the
extradition
of
someone
accused
of
helping
escaped
slaves
to
stand
trial
in
Kentucky
.
Although
Vance
had
previously
been
known
for his
anti-slavery
views
, the
extradition
seriously
affected
his
campaign
for
reelection
in
1838
.
Ultimately
,
Wilson
Shannon
was
elected
as
governor
instead
.
