The army of
Major General Anthony Wayne
camped on the rising ground immediately
eastward on the night of July 28th, 1794 A.D.
After advancing twelve miles from headquarters
at Fort Greene Ville on the expedition against
the Indian tribes of the Maumee Valley.
The encampment was about six hundred yards
square, covering some seventy acres, and was
protected by a breastwork of felled trees on
the exposed sides. On July 29th, the army pushed
forward, following a well worn Indian path, to
the headquarters of the Wabash River, and camped
a short distance beyond Fort Recovery.
Camp Stillwater is eighty-six miles from
Fort Washington (Cincinnati, Ohio)
