StateHood Question (OH)

It is routinely stated that OH was admitted as the 17th state in the union in March 1803. However, I have heard stories that only the house or the senate, passed the amendment. The story goes that the oversight was corrected after Alaska was admitted and before Hawaii was. Any insight?

Not sure if that’s what you are looking for, and it is part of a Tax Protest question, but it does apply to Ohio and it’s journey to Statehood. :slight_smile:
