Lieutenant Colonel George Rogers Clark and his
frontiersmen captured Fort Sackville and British Lt. Governor Henry Hamilton on February 25, 1779. The heroic march of Clark's men from Kaskaskia on the Mississippi River in mid-winter and the subsequent victory over the British remains one of the great feats of the American Revolution.
Clark was hailed as the "Conqueror of the West", and much of the midwest was ceded by Great Britain to the new United States in the Treaty of Paris
