Answer:

Fort Necessity

Step-by-step explanation:

After failing to build a fort on the Ohio River, Virginia governor sent Col. George Washington to build a road to facilitate the troop movement in the region. Allied natives reported to Washington that a small French group was going towards them. This group was led by Joseph Coulon de Jumonvillle de Villers who died in combat. This skirmish started the French and Indian War. The Fort was destroyed by the French after the Battle of the Great Meadows, also known as Battle of Fort Necessity.
