Notes

Note 1

killed by George Washington?

Note 2

Phillipe was almost certainly the Enseigne killed in 1757 while returning to Fort Duquense from a reconnaissance mission to Fort Cumberland. That mission's objective was to entice out small parties and then kill them or take them prisoner. The initial force was comprised of 40 Indians and 12 white men including three officers, Phillipe, St Ours and François Marie Picoté de Belestre. They did not kill any of the British but they drove off some horses. About half way back to Fort Duquesne they were attacked on May 30, 1757 by British Americans and Indians with the result that Phillippe was killed along with St Ours and 3 soldiers. Picoté de Belestre was taken prisoner. The chief warrior of the Indians was killed in that attack. (See NYCD documents) His wife remarried in 1760 which tends to confirm he was the La Saussaye killed on that raid.
