Along its shores have been fought many decisive battles during the various wars of our country. Most of the early fighting with the Indians during the Revolution, centered in this valley while later activities on this river were of great importance to the future of the Northwest Territory. The credit for the discovery of this historic river is due the Frenchman, Louis de Fontenac. In 1679 he piloted his boat up what was then known as 'lThe Miami of the Lake and explored the region. In 1680 he established the Miami Trading Post. During the next one hundred and fourteen years a number of forts were built along the Maumee which were destined to become great industrial cities in the future. H The year 1794 is famous for a number of reasons. The Battle of Fallen Timbers was fought August 20, 1794 by General Wayne opposed by the In- ,A dians. This ground was so named because a great tornado had swept the I country and annihilated all the trees. Rev. James B. Finley, the missionary, says It was the last united effort of barbarism to check the swelling overflow of civilization. In this battle Chief Turkey Foot, of the Ottawas, was killed and buried where he fell, beside the big rock. In tribute to their Chief the Indians carved Turkeys' Feet on the rock, which is still preserved at this place. Six I Z-j-Gi A I, 7 ilk... ,-.--.1
