Alt Text Campaign map of the Anglo-French Dispute from 1753 to 1755 along the northeastern seaboard as part of Fort Necessity National Battlefield. The map shows most of New England and some of the Midwest, with a majority of the campaigns taking place in Pennsylvania and Virginia. Red and blue lines denote campaign trails. Extended Description There are three campaigns shown on the map. The first is George Washington’s journey in 1753. It started in Williamsburg and traveled northwest through Alexandria and Winchester in Virginia and Wills Creek/Fort Cumberland in Maryland, all of which are labeled in red. In Pennsylvania, the next stop, Fort Necessity Great Meadows, is also labeled in red but the remaining stops are labeled in blue text. These include Fort Duquesne and Fort Venango before ending at Fort Le Bouef, also in Pennsylvania. George Washington’s second journey began in 1753 in Alexandria and traveled through Winchester and Wills Creek/Fort Cumberland, and ended at Fort Necessity Great Meadows, again in Pennsylvania. The third campaign shown on the map is the French Advance of 1754. It began in Pennsylvania at Fort Presque Isle and traveled south through Fort Le Boeuf, Fort Venango, Fort Duquesne (Forks of the Ohio), and Redstone Creek before clashing with Washington’s troops at Fort Necessity. In addition to sites already mentioned, about half of the French outposts labeled in blue text are west of Ohio though and the rest reach up and over Lake Ontario and across Lake Champlain. Those west of Ohio are Fort Michilimackinac, Fort La Baye, Fort Détroit, Fort Saint-Joseph, Fort Miami, Fort Ouiatenon, Fort Vincennes, and Fort de Chartres. Those reaching north and east are Fort Toronto, Fort Niagara, Fort Frontenac, La Présentation, Fort Saint-Frédéric, and Fort Carillon. Represented in red text and in addition to those already mentioned, three British outposts are in northern New York: Fort Oswego, Fort William Henry, and Fort Edward.
