White's Station

At the third crossing of Mill Creek, Jacob White built a stockaded settlement in 1790 consisting of six cabins and a blockhouse. White's Station was one of several walled settlements that guarded the approaches to Cincinnati and Fort Washington. During the Indian Wars it served as a supply depot and at times was manned by both United States soldiers and frontier militia. On October 19, 1793, a party of Indians attacked the station, killing Andrew Goebel (Gobel) and two children of Mrs. Moses Pryor before being repulsed. Gen. Wayne camped here in 1793 on his march to victory at Fallen Timbers.
