Allen Family Massacre new article content ...

The “Allen Family Massacre” refers to the killing, in August 1777, of an American Loyalist family and African-American slaves, by Native Americans associated with the British army of Lieutenant General John Burgoyne during the American Revolutionary War in northern New York State. It has been reported that the same Native American group also killed a young Loyalist woman, Jane McCrea, a day or two later. These incidents, along with others, caused fear among Loyalist families in the area and led to increased Patriot recruiting which helped to fill the ranks of Patriot militias. Subsequently, the British invasion of the Champlain-Hudson Valley that Burgoyne hoped would end the American Revolution, was stopped at the nearby Battle of Saratoga in September and October 1777.
