How many casualties were there? Black Hawk claimed there were three Indians. The white men claimed there were seven. There were three Indian scouts, two Indians killed on the battlefield by Capt. Adams, and two found south of town near the body of Bird W Ellis. www.comportone.com/cpo/genealogy/articles/localhistory/BlackHawkWar.htmThe following work was compiled and donated by: Armour Van Briesen, Stillman Valley, Illinois; Originally typed by Bertha Wallbloom of the North Central Illinois Genealogical Society; Presented by the Daughters of the American Revolution, Rockford, Chapter, Rockford, Illinois 5-101-IL.
