About DBpedia

Simon Girty (November 14, 1741 – February 18, 1818) was an American-born frontiersman, soldier and interpreter from Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, who served as a liaison between the British and their Indian allies during the American Revolution. He was portrayed as a villain, and was also featured this way in 19th and early 20th-century fiction from the United States. As children, Girty and his brothers were taken captive in Pennsylvania in a Seneca raid and adopted. He lived with the Seneca for seven years and became fully assimilated, preferring their culture. He was returned to his birth family but retained a sympathy for the Indians.

dbo:abstract Simon Girty (* 1741 in Harrisburg, Province of Pennsylvania; † 18. Februar 1818 in Kanada) war ein bedeutender und einflussreicher indianischer Krieger weißer, europäischer Abstammung. Er wurde im Jahr 1741 in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania geboren. Als Junge wurde er, zusammen mit seinen Brüdern Tom, Jim und George, von Delaware-Indianern verschleppt und wuchs schließlich bei den Seneca auf. Simon Girty, der weiße Indianer, gehörte zu den Männern, die wegen ihrer Wildheit und Grausamkeit im Grenzland bei Farmern und Siedlern sehr verhasst waren. Er führte viele Angriffe gegen Siedlungen in Virginia und Kentucky an und war an der Vernichtung der Armee unter Arthur St. Clair 1791 maßgeblich beteiligt. Um der Rache der aufgebrachten Amerikaner zu entgehen, musste er als alter, von Rheuma geplagter und fast erblindeter Mann vor der Invasionsarmee des William Henry Harrison 1813 flüchten. Er starb 1818 in Kanada.
