About

In 1774, Virginia's Royal Governor, John Murray, Fourth Earl of Dunmore, launched a military campaign against the Shawnee and Miami tribal nations along the colony's western frontier. Occurring on the eve of the American Revolution, this would prove to be the last time a colonial militia would take the field in service of the king. Join historian, Mark Wilcox, as he discusses this nearly forgotten colonial campaign. Information: den63@henrico.gov
