The Pigeon Roost massacre was a Native American attack on the frontier settlement of Pigeon Roost in Indiana Territory on September 3, 1812, shortly after the outbreak of the War of 1812. A war party—mostly Shawnee, possibly including some Delaware and Potawatomi—killed twenty-four settlers, including fifteen children, and carried off two children; four of the attackers were killed.
