The British indian allies were Roundhead (Wyandot) and Walks in Water (Huron).

The British Commander was Henry Proctor who found that he wasn't the great war hero he expected to be and was basically shamed for the rest of his life. On at least 2 occasions he left wounded prisoners in the care of indians who massacred them.

Canadian historian Pierre Berton wrote,

"To the Americans he remains a monster, to the Canadians a coward. He is neither--merely a victim of circumstances, a brave officer but weak, capable enough except in moments of stress, a man of modest pretensions....The prisoner of events beyond his control, Procter dallied and equivocated until he was crushed. His career is ended.

Which was about as kind as history is with Proctor.

On the other hand 9 Kentucky counties are named after men who died in the battle.
