- Description
- "During the War of 1812 between the United States and Canada, a group of Delaware Indians who felt close ties with the British migrated from their original home territory along the Delaware River to Canada. Legend has it that they asked permission to stay in the Grand River country for one night. The next day, when asked why they had not left, the men replied that their wives wouldn't let them leave what they felt was a good place to settle."
