The Battle of St. Regis was a military skirmish during the War of 1812, occurring on October 22, 1812 on the Saint Lawrence River front at the U.S.–Canadian border. Two miles outside of St. Regis, 45 Canadian voyageurs were stationed in a house to watch for American attacks and provide confidence to the Mohawks in the area. A larger American force under Major Guilford Dudley was able to surprise the Canadians and take most of them captive.
