King George's War (1 mar 1744 año – 18 oct 1748 año)

Descripción:

A war between two alliances of a European power and a Native American Confederacy: Great Britain and the Iroquois Confederacy, and France and the Wabanaki Confederacy. These were the same belligerents as in Queen Anne's War. In Europe, Great Britain had allied themselves with Austria in the War of Austrian Succession, thereby making themselves opponents of France and Prussia. The French attacked Canso (a British fishing port), and Annapolis Royal, the then-capital of Acadia. In August, the French-Wabanaki alliance attacked Fort Anne in Annapolis Royal, but were unable to penetrate its defenses. British colonists captured Fortress Louisbourg in a six-week siege in 1745. France attempted to recover the fort the next year, but was defeated by weather and disease. There was a lot of raiding, mostly by the French-Wabanaki alliance. The same alliance destroyed the town of Saratoga, NY, and forced the residents around the area to evacuate. The war ended in 1748 with the Treaty of Aix-la-Chapelle, though the treaty did nothing to resolve hostilities between the nations.

Deaths:
8% of Massachusetts' adult male population
The rest is unknown (casualties were heavy)
