Erected here in 1795 by General "Mad" Anthony Wayne, probably after the signing of the Greenville Treaty, on land ceded by the Indians. This area was also the site of the signing of the Treaty of St. Marys in 1818 (the Indian campsites being to the south and west of this spot). Located here prior to, and a little south of the fort, was the dugout and cabin of James Girty, of the notorious Girty Brothers, giving rise to the area's original name "Girty's Town."
