The riverside village of Logstown (1725?, 1727–1758, also Logg's Town, French: Chiningue pronounced Shenango) was a significant Native American settlement in Western Pennsylvania (near present day Pittsburgh) and the site of the 1752 signing of the treaty of friendship between the Ohio Company and the Amerindians occupying the region in the years leading up to the French and Indian War — during which Logstown became nearly depopulated and abandoned. Being an unusually large settlement, Logstown was an important factor of all parties developing the Ohio and tributary rivers, for the Appalachian foothills extended far to the west and settlements would necessarily be in the valleys and so near the many navigable streams of the region—letting the colonials to use the lands just as the Amerindian people's made use of the Allegheny region.
