Battle of the Thames-- Part 9: Thamesville and Moraviantown
** The site of the battle is near present-day Thamesville, Ontario.
** During the battle, Henry Proctor fought with the Thames River on his left flank.
** Moraviantown was established in 1729 by the Delaware Indians who had converted to Christianity by the Moravian missionaries. By October 1813, it had 100 homes, a meeting house, school house and a common garden.
