Last Year of the Revolution and the Ohio Frontier War
In 1782 the Revolution continued for border settlers west of the Alleghenies. Crawford’s defeat at Mingo Bottom and the Gnaden Huetten massacre sparked Indian campaigns against Kentucky forts. George Rogers Clark later rallied Kentucky men to burn Miami towns and push back tribes, culminating in the Dive Licks and Blue Licks aftermath, shaping western boundaries and the Northwest possessions.
