Information here is taken from The History of Huntingdon
County, Pennsylvania by J. Simpson Africa.
George Jackson, Sarah Ellen Fee's grandfather, came from
Wilmington, Delaware, and settled on the Swoope farm, on the
Raystown Branch, about 1766. In half a dozen years he settled on
the Little Juniata, in the present town of Logan, below Barree
Forge, on what is now [in 1890, that is] the G.P. Wakefield farm.
There he lived during the Revolution, forting at Anderson's and
being enrolled as a member of a scouting party.
In the Revolution, George Jackson was a 2nd lieutenant in the
Third Battalion (Bedford Militia) Fourth Company commanded by
Colonel William McAlevy.
George Jackson died August 30, 1805 and is buried in an abandoned
cemetery called the Old Shaver's Graveyard under a railroad bridge in the
town of Petersberg in Huntingdon County.
One of George Jackson's descendants was Robert Jackson who was
a politician and Supreme Court justice in the first half of the
20th century.
The following is from pages 344 through 346 of The History Of
The Juniata Valley, which was published in 1856. Jane Jackson Fee
contributed information for that book and this story probably
originated with her. The book reflects attitudes about Indians from
1856 and before and are not shared by the compiler.
THE LAST SCALP TAKEN IN HUNTINGDON COUNTY
"And now we come to the last Indian massacre in the Valley of
the Juniata. It occurred on the left bank of the Little Juniata,
near the farm of George Jackson, in the latter part of August,
1781."
"At that time there was a regular force of militia in the
garrison at Huntingdon, another at Shaver's Creek, and another at
Fetter's. The Indians were well aware of this, for they constantly
kept themselves advised by spies of the progress of affairs in the
valley. The settlers, feeling secure in the presence of the
militia, abandoned the forts and went to their farms. During the
summer of 1781 the alarms were so few that people began to consider
the days of their trials and tribulations as passed away; but it
appears that it was ordained that another black crime should be
added to the long catalogue of Indian cruelties."
"One evening, George Jackson, hearing a noise in a corn-field
adjoining his house, went to the door to ascertain the cause. Dark
as the night was, he made out the figures of two men, who he
thought were stealing corn, or at least about no good; so he let
loose his dogs-- a hound and a bull-dog-- upon them. The hound
gave tongue, and both started directly into the field, where they
bayed for some time; but the men did not quit the field. In ten
minutes the dogs returned, and Mr. Jackson found that the skull of
the bull-dog had been wounded with a tomahawk. This circumstance
led him to suspect the real character of the intruders, and he went
into his house, took down his rifle, and returned to the porch.
The light which shone out of the door when Jackson opened it
revealed the position of affairs to the Indians, and they ran to
the other end of the corn-field, closely pursued by the hound."
"Peter Crum, a worthy man, well known and highly respected by
all the settlers in the neighborhood, was a near neighbor of
Jackson's. He had rented the Minor Tub Mill, and on the morning
after the above occurrence he went out to the mill a little before
daylight and set it going, then raised a net he had placed in the
stream the night before; after which he started leisurely on his
way home to get breakfast. In his left hand he carried a string of
fish, and over his right shoulder his rifle; for, notwithstanding
the great security people felt, they were so much in the habit of
constantly having a rifle for a traveling companion, that many of
the old pioneers carried it on all occasions during the remainder
of their lives."
"When Crum reached the bend of the river, a mile below his
mill, at a time when an attack from Indians would probably have
been the last thing he would have thought of, he heard the crack of
a rifle, and on looking around saw two Indians on the hill-side.
He dropped his fish, and opened the pan of his rifle to look at the
priming, when he noticed that he was shot through the right thumb--
at least it was so conjectured. Catching a glimpse of one of the
Indians, he attempted to fire, but the blood of his wound had
saturated the priming. The Indians noticed his unavailing effort
to shoot, and, probably thinking that he was trying to intimidate
them with an empty gun, jumped into the road. One of them, it
appeared, was armed with a rifle, the other with a heavy war-club.
The latter, it is supposed, approached him from behind, and dealt
him a blow upon the skull, which felled him, and the blow was
evidently followed up until the entire back part of his head was
crushed in the most shocking manner, after which they scalped him
and disappeared."
"When found, (which was supposed to be within two hours after
the murder.) Crum was lying with his face to the ground, his rifle
by his side, and the Indian war-club, clotted with blood and
brains, lying across his body,-- a sad sight for his wife, who was
among the first on the spot after the tragedy."
"This murder, committed in open daylight on a frequented road,
in the very heart of a thickly populated country, did not fail to
produce the most intense excitement, and a party of rangers started
at once after the marauders. They soon got upon their trail, and
followed them to the top of the mountain, getting sight of them
several times; but they were always out of rifle-range. They knew
they were pursued and took such a route as the rangers could not
follow, and so eluded them, and carried in triumph to the British
garrison in Detroit the last scalp taken by the red men in the
Juniata Valley."
