The French and Indian War The French and Indian War Essential Questions: ➢Who fought in the French and Indian War? ➢What caused the French and Indian War? ➢What battle tactics and strategies were used ? ➢What was the final outcome? ➢How did the results of the French and Indian War become the causes of the American Revolution? GREAT BRITAIN The English and the French brought this FRANCE rivalry with them to North America. Canada Colonies Great Britain (England) and France were “Arch- Enemies for centuries. Competing European Claims ◼ During the 1700’s, France and England had competing claims for land in North America. ◼ The French held trapping and trade routes in the Ohio Valley. ◼ The English colonies were encroaching on French territory as their population grew. ◼ They also competed over trade issues with the Native Americans in the disputed region. CAUSES OF THE FRENCH AND INDIAN WAR- FRENCH Causes of French Indian War Population and Economic Push BRITISH Competing Claims in the Ohio Territory ◼ France and England both claimed the Ohio River Valley. ◼ The French build forts in the region to protect their interest in the Valley. French FORT DUQUESNE-1754 French and Indian Allies at Fort Duquesne George Washington and Fort Necessity ◼ Virginia Governor Dinwiddie dispatched George Washington to Ohio in 1753 to deliver a protest to the French. The protest was ignored. ◼ Washington and his men were instructed to build a fort in the region. Young George Washington 1754 → The First Clash The Ohio Valley British French Fort Necessity Fort Duquesne * George Washington * Delaware & Shawnee & Virginia Militia Indians The Battle of Great Meadows Recreations of Ft. Necessity. ◼ Commanding 300 militia volunteers, Washington begins to build a fort and widen the road into the Ohio Valley. 100 British regulars arrive to support him. ◼ Upon hearing of Washington’s efforts, French and Indian allies from Fort Duquesne attack the hastily constructed Fort Necessity. ◼ Running out of supplies and overwhelmed by superior French and Indian numbers, Washington is forced to surrender and abandon the fort. General Edward Braddock ◼ British General sent in 1755 to capture French Fort Duquesne and dislodge the French from North America. ◼ He is a professional-one of the most renown British commanders-an expert in European warfare and battle tactics. Braddock’s Expedition Braddock “halted to level every mole hill and to erect bridges over every brook by which means we were four days getting twelve miles”. (George Washington) Braddock’s Dilemma: Fight a European style war in the wilderness of Pennsylvania. Braddock Road-”An Engineering Marvel” “Surprise in the Wilderness” Braddock’s Expedition Braddock’s army is surprised by the French and their Indian allies as they approach Fort Duquesne. Braddock’s Defeat ◼ The British are attacked from all sides by the French and Indian allies. ◼ Braddock’s army is routed and retreats in disarray. ◼ The first two years of the war were characterized by humiliating defeats for the British. During the battle on July 9th Braddock is mortally wounded. Braddock dies and is buried in the middle of the road he built and the remainder of his army marches over him in retreat to hide the grave from the French and their Indian allies. ➢ Failed to secure Ft. Duquesne. ➢ Suffered over 1000 Casualties, including himself. 23 year-old Colonel George Washington helped to organize the retreat. Braddock’s burial and grave site. “The Victory of Montcalm’s Troops at Carillon” French capture of St. John, New Foundland The Seven Years War in Europe ◼ War breaks out in Europe. ◼ Britain, Prussia, and Hanover fought against an alliance of France, Austria, Saxony, Russia, Sweden and Spain. ◼ The European phase of the war lasted from 1757 to 1763. French capture of Fort St. Philip on the island of Menorca Fortunes Reverse ◼ In 1757, Sir William Pitt became the new Prime Minister of Great Britain and vowed to lead country to victory. ◼ Pitt concentrated on: ◼ expelling the French from North America ◼ A new strategy with new generals-General Wolfe and General Amherst ◼ buying the support of the Americans with promises of fixed territorial boundaries. The Battle of Louisburg-1758 The British Navy lays siege to Louisburg for three weeks in June 1758. At the mouth of the St. Lawrence River, the island of Louisburg controls access to the supply lines of the French Empire. “ A Strategic Location” Louisburg Siege of Louisbourg. British burning warship Prudent and capturing Bienfaisaint. French are defeated British troops capturing Louisburg British occupying the island Battle for Quebec-1759 “AN EPIC BATTLE” WOLFE MONTCALM VS. British assault on the fortress city of Quebec General Montcalm, mortally wounded on the Plains of Abraham, is taken back to Quebec. Death of General Wolfe Fortunes Reverse ◼ The greatly fortified force devastated the Cherokee to the South and began capturing strategic French forts and cutting off their supply lines. ◼ The British conquered Quebec in 1759. ◼ In 1760, they captured Montreal. ◼ In the final years of the war, the British defeated the French Navy and took French colonies in the Caribbean. ◼ The French Empire in North America came to an end. French Defeats ◼ The Treaty of Easton, signed in 1758, essentially sealed France’s fate. ◼ In the treaty, the British promised the Six Iroquois Nations to stop settlements west of the Alleghenies in exchange for their neutrality in the war. ◼ This caused the French to abandon Fort Duquesne and, by 1760, Detroit and Montreal, the last two French strongholds in North America, had fallen. ◼ This was the end of major fighting in North America. The Treaty of Paris ◼ The 1763 Treaty of Paris ended the French and Indian War. ◼ The French transferred its claims west of the Mississippi to Spain and ceded its territory east of the Mississippi to the British. ◼ The Treaties of Easton and Paris limited colonization to the Eastern seaboard. Pontiac's Rebellion ◼ Native Americans quickly grew disenchanted with the British. ◼ The British exhibited little cultural sensitivity, traded unfairly, and failed to stop encroachments on Indian land. ◼ This unrest culminated in a rebellion by Pontiac, a Native American leader who united various tribes with the goal of expelling the British. ◼ The uprising lasted from 1763 to 1766. ◼ Massacres and atrocities occurred on both sides— most notably, British General Jeffrey Amherst gave the Native Americans blankets infested with smallpox. Chief Pontiac: Address to Ottawa, Huron, and Pottawatomie Indians (May 5, 1763) ◼ “It is important … that we exterminate from our lands this nation which seeks only to destroy us. You see as well as I do that we can no longer supply our needs, as we have done from our brothers, the French. The English sells us goods twice as dear as the French do, and their goods do not last. … When I go to see the English commander and say to him that some of our comrades are dead, instead of bewailing their death, as our French brothers do, he laughs at me and at you. If I ask for anything for our sick, he refuses with the reply that he has no use for us. … Are we not men like them? … What do we fear? It is time.” The Proclamation of 1763 The Proclamation of 1763 was to prevent colonists from settling past the Appalachian Mountains The British had also made a deal with the Indians to not move into the Ohio Valley The Royal Proclamation of 1763 ◼ Violent incidents such as Pontiac's Rebellion prompted the English crown to attempt to mandate an end to encroachments on territory promised to the Indians. ◼ Settlers were not to establish themselves west of the “Proclamation Line.” ◼ The effort was unsuccessful and is viewed by many to be a leading cause of the Revolutionary War. .

Mueller, Ph.D. Chief Historian Independence National Historical Park 143 S. 3rd. Street Philadelphia, PA 19106 Although it often gets overlooked, the French and Indian War, or the War for Empire as it is now becoming known, was a very important turning point in United States History. While it was only a small part of a much larger scale war between Great Britain and France, it would bring about many changes on the North American continent. The immediate results of the war included the British acquisition of Canada and an almost immediate end to French presence in the North American colonies. The war also had the long term effects of establishing British dominance in the colonies and planting the seeds for the American Revolution. In the grand scheme of the war, the state of Pennsylvania would prove to be immensely important. While the war was being intensely debated among the assemblymen in the State House in Philadelphia, many important military events were taking place across the state. Not only did the French and Indian War establish places like Fort Duquesne and Fort Necessity as key historical sites, but it also involved some notable men in Pennsylvania and American history, such as Edward Braddock, James Abercrombie, and a then little known 21 year old Colonel by the name of George Washington. The major turning point of the war, and American history for that matter, was led by a Scottish-born General by the name of John Forbes, whose expedition across the state in 1758 forced the French to retreat from Fort Duquesne, a feat unsuccessfully attempted by Braddock three years earlier, and ultimately set the British on a course towards victory.

One side of the medal showed a road cut through vast forests and the rocky steepness of impassable mountains. The Latin inscription, Per-Tot Discrimina, tersely called attention to the many difficulties the British had encountered before they came to blows with the French and Indians at the Ohio. 1 The other side of the medal showed a flaming fort at the junction of the two rivers toward which a well organized army advanced, led by a general carried on a litter. The caption, Ohio Britannica Consilio Manuque, boasted that the Ohio Valley was now British through superior wisdom and skill. Many provincial as well as British officers were entitled to wear this medal, which probably never got beyond the conception stage. More than a medal was needed to aid the men to hold the area won Dr. Quattrocchi is chairman of the History Department and teacher of Advanced Placement History at Allderdice High School.

    All The Way Back (2011 to 571) ended the French control of the peninsular portion of Nova Scotia. The British made several attempts to take Quebec but these efforts never even resulted in an attack on the city. A peace treaty was signed in 1713. Dummers’s War (1721 – 1725) was minor and resulted in a few battles between the French and the English in Maine. It started when the French became concerned with the colonists settling along the Kennebec River in Maine and began to raid them. The Colonists built Fort Dummer at what is today Brattleboro, Vermont. On 23 August 1724 a force of 80 men attacked the Indian settlement of Norridgewock and captured it. This had been the source of the raids against the Kennebec settlers. They killed seven Indian chiefs and the leader of the settlement. A peace treaty was signed in 1725. King George’s War (1744 – 1748) consisted of only one major action in North America. This was the siege of Louisburg on Cape Breton Island in 1745. It was a massive operation carried out by colonial forces. The siege was successful and the fortress fell. On 28 November 1745 the French and Indians raided Saratoga, New York and destroyed the settlement and either killed or captured more than 100 of its inhabitants. In 1748 the French attacked the settlement at Schenectady, New York. A peace treaty was signed in 1748. The French and Indian War (1754 – 1763) was the last of the French and Indian Wars. It was unique as it involved regular units of both the French and British armies engaged in combat in North America.

    “ALL THE NATIONS TO THE SUN SETTING” GEORGE CROGHAN, EXTENDING THE LIMITS OF EMPIRE IN BRITISH NORTH AMERICA A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of The Graduate School of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Liberal Studies By Jeffrey Michael Zimmerman, M.B.A. Georgetown University Washington, D.C. December 28, 2015 i ©2015 by Jeffrey Michael Zimmerman All Rights Reserved ii “ALL THE NATIONS TO THE SUN SETTING” GEORGE CROGHAN, EXTENDING THE LIMITS OF EMPIRE IN BRITISH NORTH AMERICA Jeffrey Michael Zimmerman, MBA Chair: Ronald M. Johnson, PhD ABSTRACT George Croghan was a mid-eighteenth-century British Indian agent. Born in Ireland, he came to America and settled in Pennsylvania in 1741. As an Ohio Valley fur trader he pushed far enough west to invite destruction of his Great Miami River depot by New France in 1752. Over time he befriended Shawnee, Ohio Huron and Miami Indians. Indian Department Superintendent Sir William Johnson rewarded his countryman’s effectiveness by appointing him western deputy. Britain’s victory in the French and Indian War added Illinois to Croghan’s responsibilities. General Lord Jeffrey Amherst led Britain’s war efforts; he was replaced by General Thomas Gage, under whom Croghan had served at Braddock’s Defeat. Pontiac’s War ensued; Gage and Johnson relied on Croghan, who knew the Ottawa leader, to end it. However, Croghan’s focus became blurred by land speculation. Several western land schemes crafted by Croghan and Philadelphia financier Samuel Wharton either failed or were cut short by the American Revolution.

  • Meriwether Lewis and the Nemacolin Trail Through Squirrel Hill
    Return to Lewis and Clark Experience Links ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Meriwether Lewis and the Nemacolin trail through Squirrel Hill TonyIndovina The inspiration for this article is a project by the National Park Service that will link Squirrel Hill to the Lewis and Clark Expedition. The SHHS was contacted by the consulting group that created and maintains the website Lewis and Clark National Historic Trail Experience (https://lewisandclark.travel/), regarding their desire to include the Neill log home in Schenley Park on their interactive map because of their belief that Meriwether Lewis passed near there in 1803. The link to this project will soon be put on the SHHS. Perhaps no roadway in Squirrel Hill is more rooted in early American history than the Nemacolin Trail, said to have passed closely by the historic Neill Log Home and Catahecassa Fountain in Schenley Park. The Nemacolin Trail was created by a King's Man Meriwether Lewis by from Maryland and a Delaware Indian Chief who improved a network of hunting paths, Charles Wilson Peale, 1807 first blazed by buffalo through the Cumberland Narrows in Maryland. And though the original trail ended just outside of Brownsville on the Monongahela River, an extension of it is believed to have passed through Squirrel Hill. The Nemacolin Trail also became Braddock's Road and parts of U.S. Route 40, the National Road. We will focus firston the most recent referenceto the trail and its connection to Squirrel Hill. Meriwether Lewis' Travel to Early Pittsburgh The history of Meriwether Lewis' route to Pittsburgh on the Nemacolin Trail is somewhat speculative.
