3. Headline: The Yellow Creek Massacre and the Chaos of Colonial Tribalism Guest Author: Robert G. ParkinsonThis segment details the 1774 massacre at Yellow Creek, where eight Mingo people, including Logan's brother and sister, were murdered by settlers. Parkinson argues that colonial settlers from Pennsylvania and Virginia acted just as "tribal" as the native groups they fought. Following a British withdrawal from Fort Pitt, a power vacuum led to violent jurisdictional disputes. Despite Logan's subsequent claims, the actual perpetrators were a group of settlers that did not include Michael Cresup, who was miles away at the time, though he had previously encouraged frontier violence. 3
