Last Battle in the Scioto Country

One-half mile south east of this marker was Reeves Crossing on Tod's Trace, where in the summer of 1795 the last battle in the Scioto country was fought between the whites under General Nathaniel Massie and the Shawnee Indians. The white explorers were victorious. One white man, Joshua Robinson, and several Indians were killed.

Marker is on U.S. 50 ½ mile east of Local Highway 30, on the right when traveling east.
