History
It is near the site of the Battle of Tippecanoe.
In the late summer and fall of 1811, William Henry Harrison, then Governor of the Indiana Territory, organized a military expedition against the increasing menace of the federation of Native Americans in the United States tribes being formed by the Shawnee brothers, Tecumseh and Tenskwatawa, also known as the Prophet. On the morning of November 7, 1811, after 4 o’clock AM, the camp was attacked by the Prophet. Fearing the cunning and treachery of the Prophet, General Harrison placed his troops in battle formation , instructed his men to sleep fully clothed, and assigned a large detail of men for sentinel duty. The Town of Battle Ground was named for the Battle of Tippecanoe and the Town of Harrisonville was named after William Henry Harrison, commander of the American forces of the Battle of Tippecanoe. General Harrison then set up his encampment on a ridge about a mile northwest of Prophet’s Town.
