Sunday August 28, 3:00 - Presentation by David Heckman

The newly scheduled August speaker is David Heckman, a researcher, writer and presenter regarding the Indian wars of the late 1700’s. He is particularly interested in St. Clair’s Battle on the banks of the Wabash because he had an ancestor who played an important part in that battle, was shot as part of the rear guard and left for dead, but then showed up at Fort Jefferson four days later.

 

  

Heckman also has a 20+ ft detailed map of every one of St. Clair’s forts and camps as well as Anthony Wayne’s forts and camps from Fort Washington to Fallen Timbers. Attendees at this August 28 presentation are invited to check out and photograph that detailed map.

This presentation which is free to the public will be held at the Nazarene Family Center, 401 E. Boundary St. Fort Recovery, 45846. Call 419-375-4384 for more information
