Talk:Fort Jennings, Ohio

Untitled
Here's the rest of the information I gleaned but don't know enough to verify:

1. Was it called Fort Amanda briefly? The 1888 reference says it was, but Ohio History A SHORT CHRONOLOGY: The War of 1812 in the Northwest seems to show that Ft. Jennings already existed at the time the order was given to build Fort Amanda. On October 2, General Pouage, who seems to have been at or near Ft. Jennings, was ordered both to cut a road from Ft. Jennings to Ft. Defiance, and to establish Ft. Amanda 12 miles from St. Mary's in the Ottowa Towns. Of course, maybe Mr. Pogue (Pouage?) had already created a Ft. Amanda and was pissed it got renamed, so he got to create a new one?

2. What was it used for? Nothing important I can see, just a forward base.

3. When was it established? I'm guessing Sep. 21, from A SHORT CHRONOLOGY again. But it doesn't say "Ft. Jennings was established on Sep. 21" anywhere, so I can't write it :) Italic text
