An American Family History

Jonas Preacott's 1691 Garrison in Groton

  During King William's War, the inhabitants of Groton settled in garrisons for protection against the indigenous people.
 
King William's War (1688–97) was also known as the Second Indian War, Father Baudoin's War, or Castin's War. It was the North American theater of the Nine Years' War.
European and indigenous Americans fought many fierce battles as the Europeans expanded their territory.
