schools.
Historians there only study themselves.

I was aware of the Battle of the Beaver Dams, and the role of a woman
in
it, but, alas, I did have to Google Secord's name. By the way, the War
of 1812 is also part of U.S. history.

Yes, it is. Every time I meet an American Citizen, MOST dont know ****
about History. They only seem to know about American History.
A great relative of mine helped carry Brocks body off the field at the
Battle of Queenston Heights.He was also a member of Butlers Rangers.

But if I remember correctly wasn't the Battle of Queenston Heights
part of Canadian, and not US History?- Hide quoted text -

So, you're saying that every battle fought with American troops
anywhere OTHER than US soil, is NOT US history?
It was a battle involving American Forces...it IS American History, as
well as Canadian History.
My family was one of the first 20 families to settle the Niagara
Region, after the American Revolution.

Losing side? Dieppe raid would only be known by those who are into military
history. Most of us have famous relatives somewhere in our background.
Also horse thieves and scalawags. I am related to both William Clark of
Louis and Clark travels and Abraham Clark who signed the Declaration of
Independence. Big deal. They were who they were and I am myself. You done
anything good in your life? From your postings it appears you are scum of
the earth.
