Tecumseh

British General
Shawnee Chief
1768 -1813

TecumsehA Shawnee chief, Tecumseh sided with the British in an attempt to stop settlers moving into traditional Indian lands.

He was brave, intelligent, a great speaker and got on well with the British general Sir Isaac Brock.

He was killed at the Battle of the Thames, when the British defence gave way.
