Billy Caldwell or Saguanash
Submitted by Pushmataha on Sun, 2010-08-15 23:20Billy Caldwell was an interesting character to say the least. Son of a British man and a Mohawk woman, he led a unique life that brought him into contact with most of the key players in the British/Indian community around Amherstburg during the War of 1812.
See his biography in the Dictionary of Canadian Biography Online.

Near the beginning of the French and Indian War between Britain and France, the city of Oswego, in present day New York, was considered a strategic location for both the French and the British. The British held the garrison at the beginning of 1756 and were making plans to launch operations from there to disrupt the French re-supply of their inland garrisons of the Ohio Valley.
Introducing Pushmataha
Submitted by Pushmataha on Mon, 2010-01-25 13:48I am Pushmataha and I blog on the American Indian viewpoint here. My namesake was a Choctaw leader and known as the Indian General. He fought with Andrew Jackson in the Gulf of Mexico Campaign against the Creeks and the British.
My blog will focus on the American Indian in the Sixty Years' War. I will also argue that the the Sixty Years' War covers the Gulf coast as well as the Great Lakes and Ohio Valley.
See you soon.
