They had an intense hatred for Native Americans and slaughtered many of them and caused lots of problems for the Pennsylvanian government. If you have a Barnes and Noble or Books A Million or a Borders or any other book store like that you can go and get a book called "Massacre of the Conestogas" by: Jack Brubaker. It tells you the history of the Paxton Boys and their relationship with the Natives and the Gocernment.


Did John Penn do anything related with the Paxton Boys Massacre?

After the killing of Conestoga Indians in south central Pennsylvania (December, 1763), colonial governor John Penn placed other Indians into protective custody in Lancaster. When these Indians were also killed by a mob, Penn issued warrants for the arrest of the ringleaders of the vigilante group known as the Paxton Boys. However, the only British troops were garrisoned at Philadelphia, and the local backwoodsmen (often fearful of the Indians themselves) refused to cooperate with the authorities. This and other incidents led to the segregation of Indian tribes to locations outside colonial borders. (see related link)

What were the results of the Paxton Boys?

The actions of the Paxton's boys led to two important things. First, it was seen as a measure of the hostilities that stood in between the Native American Indians and the frontiersmen. Most white settlers came to their own conclusions that both races could never live together in harmony, and that removal and possibly extinction would be the only possible solutions. The second important reckoning was the march on Philadelphia in January 1764, that only proved the reality of social tensions and its after effects.
