October 10, 1774 Battle of Point Pleasant
This battle initiated the so called American Revolutionary War. Above are links to those other battles fought in this 1774-1794 War. The number of Anishinabe Soldiers who took part in the battle, may have been near 1,000. Originally, the English had raised 2,500 soldiers to invade the Anishinabek Kentucky territory, but far less than that number actually participated in the battle. The number of English soldiers (that includes both groups who separated before the battle was fought) that did participate in the battle, was slightly more than 1,500. Of those two groups of English soldiers, only one actually fought in the battle. The many brave Ojibway Soldiers who participated in this battle, may have wanted to continue fighting in the hopes that eventually the English would be defeated, but Cornstalk and the other leaders, knew the battle would be a long battle, and they also knew that the additional English Soldiers (that other group of English Soldiers who did not fight in the battle) had arrived to reinforce their fellow English Soldiers. Cornstalk had no choice but to retreat from the battle in defeat. His soldiers were greatly outnumbered. Though the Indians had got the best of the English in the Battle of Point Pleasant, it was an English victory. The number of casualties Cornstalks soldiers suffered may have been near 150, of whom, most had been killed. The English had well over 200 casualties, with 75 killed and well over 100 wounded.
