The Battle of Falmouth October 17, 1775
This military engagement occurred at what is now the Maine city of Portland. Of course, by October of 1775, England was very aware of what was occurring back in New England and responded by sending English reinforcements from England and other European countries, especially Germany, to their North American colonies, to reinforce the native English Americans and the English Soldiers from England who were already living in North America. On October 17, 1775, according to white historians, two English warships arrived off the coast of Portland then commenced to bombard the city which had probably fell to the Indians earlier. What resulted was the evacuation of the Indians to the surrounding countryside. Nearly 500 buildings in Portland were either destroyed or damaged during the bombardment. Afterwards, the two English warships sailed to Halifax. Back in 1775, Falmouth was located in the English colony of Massachusetts. Things have changed a bit since then. What likely occurred was a large force of Anishinabek, had forcefully took the Massachusetts city of Falmouth, then destroyed the unwanted white settlement. No one knows what the number of casualties were, but the Indians probably killed a large number of the whites during the battle at the city, and also enslaved many other whites. The two English warships probably attempted to retake Falmouth but were driven off. After this battle which occurred in the English colony of Massachusetts, the next two battles occurred in Virginia.
