The locals called him "Indian George". At the age of ten he was taken captive on the Kentucky frontier by Shawnee Indians and was assimilated into the tribe. He lived with them for seventeen years and fought in the Northwest Indian War (1785–1795). After the war, he set out to find his white family.
