    Dedication of Wayne-Logstown Monument 239 Dedication of the Wayne-Logstown Monument at Legionville, Pa. The monument, erected by the Pennsylvania Historical Commission to mark the site of the ancient Indian village of Logstown and the army cantonment where during the win- ter of 1792-3 Gen. Anthony Wayne drilled his famous "Le- gion," was dedicated on Saturday afternoon, June 22nd, 1918. The ceremony took place in the meadow beside the memorial on the Lincoln Highway several hundred yards north of Legionville Station on the Pittsburgh Fort Wayne and Chicago Railroad. The sky was overcast throughout the day and a chilly rain driven by a raw wind swept across the plateau where about 100 devoted patriots gathered at the roadside to honor the memory of American pioneers whose deeds had made this ground historic. But the rain did not interrupt the proceedings nor dampen the ardor of the spec- tators, and despite the inclement weather the program was carried out as originally planned. The monument has been placed on the northeast corner of the ground occupied by Wayne's army cantonment. It is of rough-hewn granite about eight feet high and contains two keystone-shaped bronze tablets-one bearing an in- scription telling of the location of Wayne's camp and the other sets forth briefly the story of the Indian settlement at Logstown. The site of the ancient village where Conrad Weiser, George Washington and other early travelers in this region held their conferences with the red men was sev- eral hundred yards south of the location of the monument.

  • Defiance County, Ohio 2012 Board of Defiance County Commissioners' Annual Report
    Defiance County, Ohio 2012 Board of Defiance County Commissioners’ Annual Report History of Defiance County, Ohio On August 8, 1794, General Anthony Wayne and his soldiers arrived at the confluence of the Maumee and Auglaize Rivers and built "Fort Defiance". In 1803, Ohio was the first state carved from the Northwest Territory. The organization of Defiance County began on February 12, 1820, when the Ohio Legislature passed an Act. The Act provided that all the land in the State of Ohio was to become 14 separate counties. Originally, Williams County, organized in April 1824, occupied the northwest corner of the State, but included most of the area that is now Defiance County. January 13, 1825, after a resolution passed the Ohio Legislature, the town of Defiance was established as the Seat of Justice for the County of Williams. There was great dissatisfaction in Defiance after the Michigan boundary settlement in 1836. This added about 150 square miles to the north end of Williams County and the village of Defiance became more of a border town. In 1846, Bryan became the County seat, much to the dissatisfaction of the people of Defiance, as it was located near the center of the County. A petition was prepared in December 1844, and circulated. The Legislature passed the bill March 4, 1845, which provided for parts of Williams, Henry and Paulding counties to become a separate county to be named Defiance County. The bill also provided that the Seat of Justice would be established at the town of Defiance. The afternoon of March 13, 1845, at "Old Fort Defiance" a celebration of the erection of Defiance County was held.

  • 9 the British Alliance of 1812–14
    9 The British Alliance of 1812–14 Chapter Outline This chapter examines the War of 1812 and, in particular, the role that Tecumseh had in this event. By the early 1800s, the intentions of the Americans were clear. The Americans were expanding, and it would be to the west where they would seek land. The War of 1812 can be viewed as a continu- ance of the American War of Independence, as this inconclusive war had left unresolved several im- portant matters, such as those relating to Indigenous Peoples and their lands. In a similar fashion to Obwandiyag, Tecumseh, a part-Shawnee and part-Cree leader, rose to the forefront as an advocate for a pan-Indigenous movement. Like Obwandiyag, Tecumseh was linked to a prophet. Tenskwa- tawa was known as the Shawnee Prophet and happened to be Tecumseh’s brother. Tenskwatawa argued that no particular tribe had the right to give up land as its own. Tecumseh had a particular disdain for Americans as both his father and brother were killed in US frontier wars. He chose to side with the British not because he favoured them but rather because he saw them as the lesser of two evils. Tecumseh challenged the cessions of lands that the Americans were obtaining, particularly those claimed in Indiana Territory. Throughout 1812 to 1813, Tecumseh led Indigenous forces to victory af- ter victory over the Americans. Tecumseh eventually met his demise at Moraviantown where, unsup- ported by British troops that had been promised, he was killed in October 1813. The death of Tecum- seh had immediate impacts since no leader could fill his role as a catalyst for a pan-Indigenous move- ment.

  • War and Legitimacy: the Securement of Sovereignty in the Northwest Indian War
    i ABSTRACT WAR AND LEGITIMACY: THE SECUREMENT OF SOVEREIGNTY IN THE NORTHWEST INDIAN WAR During the post-revolution period, the newfound constitutional government of the United States faced a crisis of sovereignty and legitimacy. The Old Northwest region, encompassing what is now Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, was disputed between several groups. The U.S. government under George Washington claimed the region and sought to populate the land with white settlers, British officials in North America wished to reestablish British hegemony in the Ohio River valley and Native-Americans wished to protect their ancestral homeland from foreign invasion. In the 1790s, war broke out between a British backed alliance of Native tribes and the United States of America. Historians have named this conflict the Northwest Indian War. Examining government records, personal correspondences between Washington administration officials and military commanders, as well as recollections of soldiers, officials and civilians this thesis explores the geopolitical causes and ramifications of the Northwest Indian War. These sources demonstrate how the war was a reflection of a crisis which threatened the legitimacy to American sovereignty in the West. Furthermore, they also demonstrate how the use of a professional federal standing army was used by Washington’s government to secure American legitimacy.

Janicki aster model maker Andrew S. Janicki lives in Georgetown, Pennsylvania, and is a member of the International Guild of Miniature Artisans. Although his interest in Mmodel making goes back as long as he can remember, most of his model building skills were perfected on a large train display in his parents’ basement. In his adult years, he served in the U. S. Air Force and worked as a draftsman and industrial model builder for an engineering firm. Always a lover of history and historic places, Janicki has visited every state in the Union as well as 15 foreign countries. For the past several years he has been a re-enactor with the Legion of the United States, which, under the leadership Gen. “Mad” Anthony Wayne, camped at Legionville, now in Baden, before the “Battle of Fallen Timbers” (see page 2 of this newsletter). Janicki is pictured at right in a Legionnaire’s uniform; his model of Legionville will be on display in Sewickley Valley Historical Society headquarters. In 2000 and 2003, Mr. Janicki helped Beaver County put together the program to welcome the Eastern Legacy of the Lewis & Clark Journey. In May 2004, he participated in the Discovery Corps II Expedition from Wood River, Illinois, to Camp Ike Skelton National Guard Training Center in Missouri, portraying Pennsylvania native Private Patrick Gass, the member of the Corps of Discovery who outlived all the others.
