Johnson negotiates a treaty at Fort Niagara …

Years: 1764 - 1764
August
Johnson negotiates a treaty at Fort Niagara with about two thousand natives in attendance, primarily Iroquois, from July to August 1764.

Although most Iroquois have stayed out of the war, Senecas from the Genesee River valley have taken up arms against the British, and Johnson works to bring them back into the Covenant Chain alliance.

As restitution for the Devil's Hole ambush, the Senecas are compelled to cede the strategically important Niagara portage to the British.

Johnson even convinces the Iroquois to send a war party against the natives in Ohio Country.

This Iroquois expedition captures a number of Delawares and destroys abandoned Delaware and Shawnee towns in the Susquehanna Valley, but otherwise the Iroquois do contribute to the war effort as much as Johnson had desired.
