On April 18, Captain Mercer engaged in a skirmish with Native Americans near Fort Edwards on the Cacapon River in present-day Capon Bridge where he and sixteen of his men were killed. It is located on the 100-acre (0.40 km2) Powell Farm. Fort Capon was known by a number of names during its use. These names include: Fort Enoch, Enoch's Fort, Fort Capon, and Forks of Capon Stockade., Fort Capon, and Forks of Capon Stockade.
