Brodhead's Coshocton expedition was a military expedition carried out by Patriot forces against the Lenape near Coshocton, Ohio in April 1781 during the American Revolutionary War. Led by Daniel Brodhead, the Patriots engaged and defeated several Lenape warriors, massacring 16 captives before burning Coshocton and the then-abandoned settlement of Lichtenau to the ground.^[1]
