Andrew
Montour
(ca.
1710 - 1774) Mediator/Scout
Born of Franco-Iroquoian heritage, Montour served
the interests of Virginia and Pennsylvania against
the French in the upper Ohio Valley. He was
a master of complex frontier diplomacy who could
speak French, English, and at least seven native
tongues. In 1752 he accompanied William Trent
down the Ohio River, exploring large areas in
present-day West Virginia between the Kanawha
and Monongahela rivers.
