On March 8, 1782, a group of Pennsylvania militiamen slaughtered some 90 unarmed Native Americans at the Moravian mission settlement of Gnadenhutten, Ohio. Although the militiamen claimed they were seeking revenge for Indian raids on their frontier settlements, the Indians they murdered had played no role in any attack.

I am writing to thank SGT John McConnell for posting this on his site. Also, thanks to each for your kind and heartfelt comments.
I am Gerard Heath and I posted the original video about the massacre of my ancestors on this horrible day. It was my intention to raise awareness of the event and the site and your posting helped to that end.
Meegwetch (Thank You)
