Is it true that George Washington's 1754 skirmish at Jumonville Glen helped trigger the Seven Years' War?

Yes. A reference article on the Battle of Jumonville Glen states the 1754 event had international repercussions and was a contributing factor in the start of the Seven Years' War, and a book record says Washington's first campaign sparked the French and Indian War, which grew into the Seven Years' War. A history Q&A cautions the incident should not be overestimated as a cause.
