Murders and ambushes by Indians or others throughout Sinking Valley and all of present-day Blair County during the American Revolution are very well documented in several sources. There is no record of the death of a guard during the 20 months that the Fort was garrisoned by militia. Perhaps this is being confused with the story of the battle at Frankstown?
