WHAT ROLE DID HE PLAY?? His small force got Native American allies and entered Vincennes on December,17,1778 and captured Fort Sackville and the commandant, Captain Leonard Helm. Then, Colonel Clark returned and recaptured the outpost and took Hamilton Prisoner.

WAS HE A LOYALIST OR PATRIOT??? Henry Hamilton was a loyalist. I know because if you fought for the British then you were loyal because you stayed with them.

THE ENLIGHTENMENT Henry Hamilton didn’t believe in the enlightenment ideas because he already had what he wanted.

DID HE SURVIVE???? Yes, he survived the revolutionary war

MY OPINION My opinion of this person Henry Hamilton is that he is a real bad and wicked person. He fought for Britain because he didn’t want any other person to have the money, Power, and land they have.
