AFTER WHAT HAPPENED TO THE INDIANS? >> Another good one to read is "The Frontiersmen" also by Alan Echert. It is based on the life of Simon Kenton and Tuecumchua, lots of Local history about the settling of WV, KY and Ohio. This one was wrote in the 1970's. I am currently reading it for the second time. I read it once as a teenager and I now have a whole knew outlook of it. I got my copy at the library. Kat in WV
