Description
FORT OSWEGATCHIE TALK
On this Wednesday, North Country historian and author James E. Reagen will talk about the Revolutionary War in St. Lawrence County at the Ogdensburg History Museum. Sponsored by the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR), Swe-kat-si Chapter, Reagen will talk about Northern New York's unique role in America's struggle for independence from British rule. All the public is invited to attend. Fort Oswegatchie played an active role during the war, serving as a staging area for daring raids and major expeditions into the Mohawk Valley, said Reagen. Unfortunately, too many people have no idea about this important period in our nation's history and what happened right here in Ogdensburg. Therefore they invite you to come attend and expand your knowledge about Fort Oswegatchie.
