Blacksmith at Venango 1752 - John Buxton

This is a portrait of John Frazier who, with a few other English traders on the
upper Allegheny river in 1752, were visited by friendly local natives that appreciated
his skill at metal repair. By mid-1753 the French had taken his cabin in Venango
and he fled to Turtle Creek near the Monongahela River. His cabin there was
visited by young George Washington in 1753 and 1754.
