sloop launched at Oswego on the
Great Lakes in 1756; the French seized her and seven other vessels of the Canadian Great Lakes Squadron when
Fort Oswego surrendered to General
Montcalm that same year.
HMS Mohawk was a Massachusetts privateer launched in 1781 that
HMS Enterprise captured in 1782 and that the Royal Navy briefly took into service, before selling her in 1783. She then became a
slaver and merchant vessel, before becoming a British privateer in 1797. The French captured her in the Mediterranean in 1801 and she served the
French Navy until she was sold at Toulon in 1814.
