TALKIN' 'BOUT PERFECTLY CRAFTED "BOOKENDS OF TIME" !!!! Both the Battle of Burnt Corn in 1813 and the destruction of the Negro Fort in 1816 occurred on THE SAME DAY: JULY 27. See how well that FACT fits in with Dale Cox's comment, "Some have called it [the destruction of the Negro Fort] the “last battle” of the War of 1812. Others believe it was the “first battle” of the Seminole Wars. It many ways it was both." http://exploresouthernhistory.com/mobile/2016/07/20/siegebegins/
