The Raid on Salmon Falls (March 27, 1690) captured and destroyed the English settlement of Salmon Falls (present-day Berwick, Maine) during King William's War. It involved Joseph-François Hertel de la Fresnière, his son Jean-Baptiste Hertel de Rouville and Norridgewock Abnaki chief Wahowa.
The village was plundered and burnt. Thirty-four men were killed and fifty-four people, mostly women and children, were carried away captive to Canada. Militia mustered from Portsmouth gave chase but were driven off in a skirmish later that day. Hertel then continued to raid present-day Portland, Maine.
The attackers' original intent was to target the home of Edward Tyng, father of Edward Tyng, at Fort Loyal, but changed plans and attacked Salmon Falls.
