Lord Dunmore's War
Lord Dunmore's War (1774-?) - Began in spring of 1774, on the Ohio River above the mouth of the Little Kanawha River, between Indian peoples (particularly Shawnee, Miami tribe, and Wyandot) and parties of Anglo-American settlers who were in the region either exploring the country farther to the northwest or clearing land for settlement.
The Proclamation of 1763 had reserved the land between the Appalachians and the Mississippi River for the First Nations living there. American colonials, however, saw the Proclamation as a betrayal of their interests to those of Native Americans, and in defiance of the Proclamation, a series of settlers under Daniel Boone and others established themselves in what is now Kentucky.
