Dunmore's War - 250 Years: Class 3 The People Between: Dunmore's War and the Indigenous Struggle for Independence

Aug. 1, Class 3: The People Between: Dunmore's War and the Indigenous Struggle for Independence

Lord Dunmore’s War is considered the last of the colonial wars and one of the most significant conflicts in western Virginia. This presentation examines the causes and consequences of the conflict while placing it in the context of the 60-year war for independence fought by the Native peoples of the “Ohio country."


Instructor Travis Henline earned his MA in history from West Virginia University. He has spent a career in public history and museums, working for the National Park Service, the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation, and the WV Division of Culture and History.  He currently serves as the Curator of Indigenous History and Culture for the Jamestown-Yorktown Foundation in Williamsburg, VA.
