Abstract
With the 1781 defeat of the British forces at Yorktown, the American Revolution began winding down in the East. On the frontier of Western Pennsylvania however, armed conflict continued on and off for more than a decade as two cultures clashed for control and survival One of the darkest days in this struggle came on March 9, 1782, when militiamen from Washington County, Pennsylvania, massacred what is believed to have been 90 Indians, mostly Lenape-speaking Christian converts, men, women, and children.
