During the Northwest Indian War, Harmar's Defeat, also known as The Battle of the Pumpkin Fields, was a battle which took place in 1790 in western Ohio. During the battle, a group of Native Americans defeated a force of several hundred miltiamen and a small number regulars commanded by Josiah Harmar. A court martial in 1791 cleared Harmar of any wrong-doing during the campaign which ended at Harmar's Defeat.[1][2]
