  • Native Americans, Europeans, and the Raid on Pickawillany
    ABSTRACT “THE LAND BELONGS TO NEITHER ONE”: NATIVE AMERICANS, EUROPEANS, AND THE RAID ON PICKAWILLANY In 1752, the Miami settlement at Pickawillany was attacked by a force of Ottawa and Chippewa warriors under the command of a métis soldier from Canada. This raid, and the events that precipitated it, is ideally suited to act as a case study of the role of Native American peoples in the Ohio Country during the first half of the eighteenth century. Natives negotiated their roles and borders with their British and French neighbors, and chose alliances with the European power that offered the greatest advantage. Europeans were alternately leaders, partners, conquerors and traders with the Natives, and exercised varying levels and types of control over the Ohio Country. Throughout the period, each of the three groups engaged in a struggle to define their roles in regards to each other, and to define the borders between them. Pickawillany offers insights into this negotiation. It demonstrates how Natives were not passive victims, but active, vital agents who acted in their own interest. The events of the raid feature a number of individuals who were cultural brokers, intermediaries between the groups who played a central, but tenuous, role in negotiations. It also exhibits the power of ritual violence, a discourse of torture and maiming that communicated meanings to friends and rivals alike, and whose implications shaped the history of the period and perceptions of Natives.

Some ethnologists believe the Shawnee descended from the Fort Ancient people. The Shawnees were wanderers, who lived in many places in the south. They became associated closely with the Delaware in Ohio and Pennsylvania. Able fighters, the Shawnees stubbornly resisted white pressures until the Treaty of Greene Ville in 1795. At the time of the arrival of the European explorers on the shores of the North American continent, the American Indians were living in a network of highly developed cultures. Each group lived in similar housing, wore similar clothing, ate similar food, and enjoyed similar tribal life. In the geographical northeastern part of North America, the principal American Indian tribes were: Abittibi, Abenaki, Algonquin, Beothuk, Cayuga, Chippewa, Delaware, Eastern Cree, Erie, Forest Potawatomi, Huron, Iroquois, Illinois, Kickapoo, Mohicans, Maliseet, Massachusetts, Menominee, Miami, Micmac, Mississauga, Mohawk, Montagnais, Munsee, Muskekowug, Nanticoke, Narragansett, Naskapi, Neutral, Nipissing, Ojibwa, Oneida, Onondaga, Ottawa, Passamaquoddy, Penobscot, Peoria, Pequot, Piankashaw, Prairie Potawatomi, Sauk-Fox, Seneca, Susquehanna, Swamp-Cree, Tuscarora, Winnebago, and Wyandot.

  • Pickawillany:French Militarypower Versus British Economics R
    PICKAWILLANY:FRENCH MILITARYPOWER VERSUS BRITISH ECONOMICS R. David Edmunds the two decades preceding the French and Indian War, Great InBritain and France engaged in a struggle for the allegiance of the Indian tribes of the Ohio Valley. This contest reflected the strengths and weaknesses of both sides. Although the region north of the Ohio and west of the Appalachians was nominally controlled by France, tribes living within this area were the targets of British economic penetration. Since British traders could furnish the Indians with large quantities of relatively inexpensive trade goods, such traders be- came the vanguard of British political aspirations in the region. Colonial officials in Pennsylvania and Virginia believed that once the tribes were drawn within the British trade network, they soon would develop political ties to the British colonies. New France was unable to meet this challenge upon British terms. French trade goods were consistently more expensive than were those of the British, and French traders had difficulty in supplying the growing demands for trade goods among the tribes of Ohio and In- diana. To counter the British economic offensive, the French relied upon their military strength in the west. French military posts con- trolled the navigable waterways between the Great Lakes and the Mississippi, and New France maintained close political and military ties withthe powerful tribes of the—Detroit region. The French depend- ed upon the—Michigan tribes the Ottawas, Potawatomis, and Chippewas for assistance in preserving order in the west. These tribesmen also aided the French in keeping other Indians loyal to New France and inrepulsing the growing British trade offensive in the Ohio Valley.

This Common Agenda is the product of several virtual meetings and multiple emails and phone conversations bringing together a diverse set of voices to identify threats to clean water in the Lake Erie watershed of Pennsylvania. Partners worked together to determine the impacts of these threats on marginalized communities and to develop solutions that protect water quality while promoting a more equitable and sustainable future for Erie County residents. Many partner organizations, several additional organizations, and a technical advisory committee developed and prioritized a list of high-priority threats. Partner organizations included local environmental, wildlife, and civic organizations, and the technical advisory committee was composed of local and regional scientists and science professionals. Prioritization was based on collective impacts to the economy, human quality of life, ecosystems, and regional sustainability. The undersigned organizations work on a variety of issues but share the common goal of promoting THROUGH sustainable development that protects our natural resources and human health.
