St Claire war was fought between the US army and the Native Indians who were believed to be the first inhabitants of the county to ensure strict compliance of the American Indians to the laws of the land and protection of the settlers. It was known as one of the worst defeats suffered by the United States army as they lost the battle. This gave the Native Indians a huge morale boost and was a reality check for the US army. Three years later at the Battle of Fallen Timbers the US army was finally victorious.
