I've been visiting the St. Charles Missouri riverfront lately and there is a quite a bit of frontier history there (Lewis and Clark's expedition) . Even though there wasn't any fighting here because of the French and Indian War, the territory around here was in a state of flux due to this war and others.
They have a "Frenchtown" section which I find fascinating. Some of the buildings there may be about 200 years old. Almost colonial.

Perhaps the Battle of San Carlos would interest you.
