The 1792 State of the Union Address was delivered by George Washington to Congress on Tuesday, November 6, 1792. It was presented in Philadelphia's Congress Hall.
The president commented on continued incursions by Native Americans into frontier settlements. Notably, the address contains mention of the Chickamaugas, a part of the Cherokee tribe that committed multiple incursions in frontiers along the Tennessee River. The President noted that the incursions were a violation of the Treaty of Holston.Fourth Annual Address to Congress The American Presidency Project https://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/documents/fourth-annual-address-congress-0 2024-12-26 www.presidency.ucsb.edu
