Are you forgetting Arthur St. Clair/St. Clair's Defeat, Chief Little Turtle, Blue Jacket, Tecumseh, Mad Anthony Wayne? Granted, these guys weren't actually "from" Ft. Recovery, they're just the reason it exists. Yikes! Ft Recovery was one of the most important sites of early Ohio history and the opening up of the Northwest Territories!Wally;1773039 wrote:Rick Derringer-Hang on Sloopy fame-is from Fort Recovery originally-last name was Zehringer originally also.
