Construction began in late 1755 and was completed one year later. It served as the military headquarters for the frontier company (approximately fifty men) as well as a safe-haven for settlers. The fort was attacked on the night of February 27\, 1760 when more than 70 Cherokees were repelled. The garrison suffered two men wounded\, as well as having one colonial boy killed. The Cherokee were reported to have lost 10-12 men killed and wounded. By the end of 1761\, the British had essentially won the war and only thirty troops remained at the fort. Colonial leaders disbanded the troops and removed all the supplies of the garrison as settlement moved far west of the fort. The neglected fort was in ruins by 1766. \nReconstruction of Fort Dobbs\nSoon after protecting the site of Fort Dobbs in 1909\, the Daughters of the American Revolution recognized the need to reconstruct the blockhouse. Following initial archaeological investigations in the 1960’s and ’70’s the site became a State Historic Site\, but with several key questions about the original structure still unanswered\, no immediate reconstruction effort was planned.[su_accordion][su_spoiler title=”Read More”]\nIn 2003\, the reincorporated non-profit Friends of Fort Dobbs took up the vision of then-site manager Beth Hill to begin an effort to rebuild. More than a decade of hard work ensued. The Friends undertook a fundraising campaign to fund the effort and co-operated with State officials\, historians\, historic building specialists\, architects\, and noted archaeologist Dr. Larry Babits to develop feasible\, historically sound plans and the capital needed to make Fort Dobbs stand on the banks of Fourth Creek once again. \nFollowing several other facility improvements to the site\, ground was broken for the new fort in August of 2016. A mix of modern and 18th Century construction techniques have been employed to meet the challenge of building a structure that must simultaneously meet modern building standards while also approximating an entirely hand-build piece of military engineering from 260 years ago. We hope\, with your support\, to have Fort Dobbs open as a living history exhibit on a grand scale by early 2019![/su_spoiler][/su_accordion] \nMark your calendar today so you don’t miss the next Fort Dobbs War for Empire French and Indian War Reenactment in April at the Fort Dobbs State Historic Site in Statesville\, North Carolina. \nTags: Fort Dobbs War for Empire French and Indian War Reenactment\, Fort Dobbs War for Empire\, War for Empire\, French & Indian War Reenactment \nView other War of 1812 Encampments & Reenactments

This event is designed to be a rich experience for both participants and visitors. \nMajor Robert Rogers force of both volunteers from the 27th foot\, and his own rangers headed out on an extended scout from Fort Edward along Lake George\, following an attack on a similar patrol from Captain Israel Putnam’s Connecticut rangers. Hiking on snowshoes due to the three feet of snow\, the tracks of Roger’s force were spotted on its march up the west side of Lake George. Near the north end of Lake George\, Major Rogers’ advanced scouts spotted their French counterparts. Rogers and his Rangers took up positions in a ravine\, setting his force in ambuscade to await whatever French patrol would come to meet him. \nThe French patrol that met Roger’s men proved far larger than he imagined\, and in this Battle on Snowshoes\, the rangers’ ambush was itself surrounded and overwhelmed. In deep woods on deep snow\, the rangers were forced to retreat with heavy casualties as the French regulars\, malice\, and natives pressed home their attack. Despite brave stands along the way\, this retreat quickly became chaotic as rangers\, Roger’s included\, ran for their lives from superior numbers of French. \nThere was not just one\, but three Battles On Snowshoes.Every other year at Fort Ticonderoga\, visitors can witness the re-enactment of a savage battle fought between the British Rangers and French soldiers on March 13\, 1758\, as described above. \n \nHowever\, a prelude to this battle occurred near Fort Carillon (now Fort Ticonderoga) on January 21\, 1757. Similar circumstances were evident\, in which Rogers’ Rangers were ambushed by a mixed troop of French regulars\, Canadian militiamen\, and Indians during a scouting expedition. Although the British had a distinct advantage due to their snowshoes\, they were largely outnumbered\, suffered heavy casualties and were forced to retreat under the cover of darkness. \nThe third and final Battle on Snowshoes occurred on March 7\, 1759 directly across from Fort Carillon\, beginning with a skirmish line composed of Rogers’ Rangers and a number of Iroquois allies. They successfully ambush a French wood-cutting detail on the eastern shore and take five prisoners. This marked the close of Rogers’ overall expedition to make observations of the French defenses on the Carillon peninsula\, and to seize prisoners for information that would assist in General Amherst’s attack later that year. \nMark your calendar today for the Fort Ticonderoga Battle on Snowshoes Reenactment in January so you don’t miss this exciting French & Indian War event! \nTags: Fort Ticonderoga Battle on Snowshoes Reenactment\, Fort Ticonderoga Living History\, Battle on Snowshoes Reenactment \nFort Ticonderoga Special Events\, History & Living History Daily Demonstrations

The unit was quickly adopted into the British army as an independent ranger company. It was trained by Major Robert Rogers as a rapidly deployed light infantry force tasked mainly with reconnaissance as well as conducting special operations against distant targets. Their tactics were built on earlier colonial precedents and were codified for the first time by Rogers. The tactics proved remarkably effective\, so much so that the initial company was expanded into a ranging corps of more than a dozen companies (containing as many as 1\,200–1\,400 men at its peak). The ranger corps became the chief scouting arm of British Crown forces by the late 1750s. The British valued them highly for gathering intelligence about the enemy. \nMark your calendar today so you don’t miss the next John Jaeger Memorial School of the Ranger at Fort Frederick State Park in Big Pool\, Maryland on the last weekend of January. \nTags: John Jaeger Memorial School of the Ranger\, John Jaeger School of the Ranger\, 18th century Ranger Training\, John Jaeger Memorial School of the Ranger weekend\, Jaeger’s Battalion of Rogers Rangers \nView other French & Indian War Reenactments and Other Events

Three forts were consecutively built between 1720 and 1755\, bearing witness to the French colonial empire established in the Mississippi basin during the XVIIIth century. Abandoned for many decades\, it was during the wave of historical site development in the first half of the XXth century that the state of Illinois partially rebuilt it to perpetuate the memory of the French presence in the region. \nAlthough it was constructed out of stone\, the new fort was not made to resist grand artillery fire; rather\, it was made to resist native sieges. After the signature of the Treaty of Paris in 1763\, officialising the French defeat at the end of the Seven Years’ War\, Fort de Chartres wound up in British hands and was renamed Fort Cavendish. \nMark your calendar today so you don’t miss the next \nTags: Fort De Chartres French and Indian War Encampment\, Fort De Chartres French & Indian War Encampment\,French and Indian War Reenactment \nView Other Fort de Chartres Events\nView other French & Indian War Reenactments and Encampments

Penn’s Colony Festival is as unique among other festivals as the Pittsburgh region is to the nation. With an authentic focus on the French & Indian era\, that began with the 1753 journey of a 21-year-old George Washington through this region\, Penn’s Colony Festival weaves history into a colonial faire featuring a village filled with fine craftsmen. \n\nPenn’s Colony Festival\nEvents from Washington’s first\, and subsequent visits to this region\, led to the sparking of the French and Indian War which changed the course of history for America\, and the world. \nAt Penn’s Colony Festival\, the living history encampment presents re-enactors from the British\, Colonial\, Scottish\, French and Native groups which made their mark on this region during the pivotal years of the French & Indian War (1754-1760). The Encampments\, Battle Re-Enactments\, Skills Presentations and Hidden History Revelations tell the story of our region. \nPenn’s Colony Festival Marketplace is affordable quality that people trust.\nThe distinction of Penn’s Colony craftsmen is quality and variety in large number of artisans who gather once a year to showcase contemporary and traditional works for the home\, garden\, seasonal and holiday decor\, gifts and personal accessories. \nA mission for design integrity\, renewable and safe resources and American-made wares results in artisans and work that customers have trusted for 30 years. \nWhether you want a custom-made primitive kitchen cabinet\, leathersmiths handtooling an intricate design into belt\, a glass blower creating a globe ornament\, you will find it here. Among the Penn’s Colony Festival artisans you will see a potter at their wheel and a blacksmith at the forge. Watch a weaver magically reveal the colorful patterns of a floor rug on the loom. Or see how a spinner works with wool. \nYou’ll see beautiful inspired designs with the style and function you want. As an added value\, learn why these handmade in America products outperform the imports. For example\, why belts from retail stores “crack” or why our potter’s coffee mug is just more comfortable to hold. As you browse up and down one road to the next in the Penn’s Colony Village\, the experience of handmade quality will be repeated wherever you turn. \nIt is about how to find beautiful items for practically every need that are safe to use\, to wear and to enjoy. That’s why customers have trusted our artisans for 30 years. To us\, that’s the important story that never grows old at Penn’s Colony Festival and Folk Art Marketplace! \nWhen you arrive at Penn’s Colony Festival . . .\nPick up the festival handbill and look at the “Diversions and Amusements” schedule. There are three locations for the scheduled activities. Prepare thyself to step back in time… there’s always some Colonial demonstration and event popping up on the village streets that is unscheduled. And there are hands on children’s activities and craftsman demonstrations throughout the festival and throughout the day. \nTake a seat at The Crown Grant Theatre\nFrom entrance gates 2 and 3 just follow Bushy Run Road to the trees. Hear the rousing tunes of life and laughter from groups such as Pint and a Half\, and Celtic Shores. You’ll be amazed by all the 18th century circus performers\, Faire Wynds can do. And this is where the roving Bagpipes will start or finish their ‘Round A bout’ marches. \nMark your calendar today so you don’t miss the next Penn’s Colony Festival in Saxonburg\, Pennslyvania. \nTags: Penn’s Colony Festival\, Penn’s Colony Living History Festival\, Penn’s Colony Marketplace \nView other French & Indian War Encampments\, Reenactments & Living History Events

French explorer Robert de La Salle (1643-87) helped the Peoria Indians build a fort in 1860 to defend themselves against the Iroquois. LaSalle made a deal with the local tribes to protect them from the Iroquois tribal league. LaSalle fostered good relationships with the tribes—Fort Creve Coeur wasn’t around too long though—this original site quickly became abandoned as Tonti left to fortify Starved Rock. Tonti’s mission to Starved Rock was to only end in failure though. However\, the Fort Crevecoeur’s seven man garrison quit their fort\, destroyed the fortifications\, and made a trek to Canada. \nMark your calendar today so you don’t miss the next Fort Crevecoeur French and Indian War Reenactment in Creve Couer\, IL. \nView other French & Indian War Reenactments and Other Events
