The French and Indian War was part of a larger conflict in Europe called the Seven Years War. Britain, Portugal, Prussia, and Hanover were against France, the Holy Roman Empire (including Austria), Russia, Spain, and Sweden. In what is now Hopwood, PA, the British attacked the French at the Battle of Jumonville Glen led by Lieutenant Colonel George Washington. Washington was forced to retreat to Fort Necessity. Washington surrendered and was forced to sign a treaty on July 4, 1754 written in French that Washington and the British army had assassinated Joseph Coulon de Villiers, Sieur de Jumonville.

The people who did not state their willingness to gain French citizenship were automatically given Indian citizenship at the end of the 6-month period.Acting and being paid as a French policeman did not entail that your grandfather was French at the time (most rank-and-file policemen in former French colonies were never given French citizenship). The son (or daughter) of your granfather can claim French citizenship ONLY IF your grandfather, specifically requested French citizenship at the time meaning that he was a French citizen. Once that child of your grandfather appraised as French, you could in turn ask to get French nationality.
