Additional Information It was here, on the morning of April 19, 1775, that "the first blood was spilt in the dispute with Great Britain," as George Washington wrote in his diary. In this first skirmish, 77 Minutemen (local colonists who had volunteered to be first responders to military and other threats) faced British Regulars. Eight Minutemen lost their lives and 10 were wounded. Two British soldiers were also injured. After the battle, Samuel Adams exclaimed to John Hancock, "What a glorious morning for America!" Where it is: Lexington Center at the junction of Massachusetts Avenue and Bedford Street (Rt. 4/225). Back to Top Erected in 1900, this statue by Henry H. Kitson memorializes the Lexington Minutemen.

    Extractions: A Statesville resident, Carter cites both short and long-term goals for the state historic site including archeological digs and research; sponsoring and/or coordinating interpretive programming, special events and interactive activities; developing recreational facilities and reconstructing the fort itself. Partners in this initiative include the Fort Dobbs Alliance, a non-profit support group, local government and the business community. While Commander Hugh Waddell and his rangers were based at Fort Dobbs, they spent most of their time scouting the backcountry to protect frontier colonists. During periods of extreme danger, the colonists abandoned their homes and camped near the fort. The night of February 27, 1760, a Cherokee raiding party made the only direct attack ever attempted against Fort Dobbs. In 1761, 2,300 British regulars and provincials soundly defeated the Cherokee and the western frontier was pushed nearly 50 miles west of the fort. The signing of the Treaty of Paris in 1763 ended the French and Indian War and gave Great Britain undisputed control over North America. The following year, the colonial assembly decided to dismantle Fort Dobbs, as it was no longer useful. The garrison was dismissed and supplies were removed. Over time, the buildings fell into ruin and disappeared, leaving only ground impressions.

    Extractions: Route: 2,170 miles (3,495 km) As the harbinger of America's westward expansion, the Oregon Trail was the pathway to the Pacific for fur traders, gold seekers, missionaries, and emigrants. Beginning in 1841 and enduring for more than 20 years, an estimated 300,000 emigrants followed this route from the Midwest to Oregon on a trip that took five months to complete. Today the trail corridor contains some 300 miles of discernible wagon ruts and 125 historic sites. The approximate route can still be followed by automobile, and opportunities are available to travel by foot, horse, or mountain bike in many places. Oregon-California Trails Association, P.O. Box 1019, Independence, MO 84051-0519; 818-252-2278 The historic Oregon Trail extends from Independence, MO to Oregon City, OR.
