Biographical History

Seneca chief generally regarded as having made sincere efforts to prevent warfare.

A participant in the peace conferences at Montreal, Fort Pitt, and Fort Stanwix, Guyasuta was initially neutral during the Revolutionary War, and then a reluctant supporter of the British. After the conflict Gayashuta resided near Fort Pitt; by 1790 he was destitute.

From the description of Speech of Gayashuta an ancient chief of the Seneca Nation on the borders of Pennsylvania : as given in charge by him to one of the Sachems of that nation ... to be delivered to the Friends of Philadelphia, 1790. (Newberry Library). WorldCat record id: 37869210
