  • History of Upland, PA
    Chronology of Upland, PA from 1681 through 1939 and A Chronology of the Chester Mills from 1681 through 1858. Land in the area of today’s Upland was entirely taken up in the 1600’s by Swedes, and laid out in “plantations”. Swedes and Finns had settled on the west bank of the Delaware River as early as 1650. The Swedes called this area “Upland”. Peter Stuyvesant, Dutch Governor of New Amsterdam (now New York), forced the Swedes to capitulate and named the area “Oplandt”. September, 1664 – English Colonel Nichols captured New Amsterdam, it became “his majesty’s town of New York”. The Swedes decided it was “Upland” again. Local Indians were of the Lenni Lenape tribe – The Turtle Clan. An old Indian trail ran from Darby along the general route of the present MacDade Blvd. into the Chester area, where it followed today’s 24th Street to the present Upland Avenue. Here it turned down the hill passing the current Kerlin Street, and on to the area that is now Front Street where it turned right, following close to Chester Creek across the land which later would become Caleb Pusey’s plantation, and then made a crossing to the higher land on the opposite side of the creek. Dr. Paul Wallace, the Indian expert, sites this Indian trail; “The Indians could here cross over on stones and keep their moccasins dry”. The Indian name for the Chester Creek was “Meechaoppenachklan”, which meant. Large potato stream, or the stream along which large potatoes grow. From 1681 . William Penn, being a man who learned from the experiences of others, was intent on providing a vital infrastructure for the settler/land owners in the new colony.

  • Historic Resources Documentation & Context
    Appendix B Historic Resources Documentation & Context This Appendix provides detailed property information for historic resources discussed in Chapter 4. This research was completed via extensive deed research undertaken by Chester County Archives. Numbers listed before the historic resource property owner names refer to ‘Map IDs’ in Chapter 4 tables and maps. The present-day municipal name is noted in parentheses after the resource property owner name. The term ‘site’ indicates the structure is no longer extant. If the 1777 property owner claimed property damages1 related to the battle, Plunder, Depredation and/or Suffering is indicated. This Appendix also provides a brief historic context of each municipality discussed in Chapter 4. The 1777 property and road maps were developed by Chester County Archives based upon property lines in 1883 Breou’s Maps, deed research, and original road papers. Associated Encampment & Approach Landscapes Historic Resources Robert Morris/Peter Bell Tavern Site/Unicorn Tavern Site (Robert Morris – Plunder & Peter Bell - Depredation - Kennett Square) 03.02: 108 N. Union Street (Parcel #3-2-204) Robert Morris of Philadelphia (the financier of the American Revolution) purchased an 87 acre tract of land in March of 1777 of which this lot was a part (Deed Book W pg 194). He sold it in 1779 to Peter Bell, an inn holder, who had been operating the tavern since 1774. Located on the northwest corner of State and Union Streets, the tavern had been rebuilt in 1777 from black stone on the site of the earlier tavern which had burned. Knyphausen had his headquarters here. There is evidence that his property was plundered.

  • Chapter 3: Historic Resources Plan
    Chapter 3 Historic Resources Plan The Brandywine Battlefield covers 35,000 acres, of which 14,000 acres have remained undeveloped since 1777. As a result, there are abundant historic resources within the Battlefield which has been designated as a “Protected Areas of National Significance” in Landscapes2, the Chester County Comprehensive Policy Plan. The 2010 ABPP Battle of Brandywine: Historic Resource Survey and Animated Map (2010 ABPP Survey) identified numerous historic resources that are further evaluated in this chapter, along with newly identified resources. This chapter also discusses the Brandywine Battlefield National Landmark (the Landmark) which, until now, was never mapped using modern cartographical methods. This chapter also discusses “Battlefield Planning Boundaries” which are mapped resource areas used in municipal land use ordinances. Lastly, this chapter identifies historic sites which could be protected as open space, and then addresses municipal ordinances that address historic resources preservation. This chapter also includes a Historic Resources Plan for the Battlefield. This plan was developed based on an evaluation that prioritizes those parts of the Battlefield that are well suited to be studied in greater detail or protected. The Battlefield is large and includes extensive areas of developed land in which there are no existing historic structures. Even the topography of the land has been graded in many areas so that hills or swales that were present in 1777 no longer exist. To determine what areas warrant further study and protection, an analysis was conducted that focuses on historic resources such as buildings; land areas that were used by troops for camping, marching, or combat; and defining features such as villages or streams that were important to the events of the Battle.

  • Chapter 7: Upland County Park Chapter 7: Upland County Park
    Upland County Park 7 Volume III: County Parks and Recreation Plan Chapter 7: Upland County Park Chapter 7: Upland County Park INTRODUCTION BRIEF HISTORY The earliest relevant history of the Upland County Park area was the construction of Caleb Pusey’s house in 1638 and various mills and a race hydraulically powered by Chester Creek. The Mills created by Pusey were successful through the 1700’s even after Pusey sold them in 1709. Further development of the mills in the 1800’s, the Pusey site, on land in Upland Park and in the Upland area was directly attributed to the Crozer Family. John Price Crozer bought the mills and the Pusey tract in 1845. The Crozers’ further developed the Upland Park area to include small frame houses and a school house. John Crozer eventually turned the mills into a very profitable cotton factory with steam power. From his prospering enterprises and the ever-growing workforce associated, Crozer was able to develop the area into a village of houses and mansions, most of which have not survived to this today. One of the mansions, the George K. Crozer mansion (affectionately known as the “Netherleigh” mansion), was built in 1869 on nearly 38 acres. The Mansion included a carriage house, a springhouse, a coachman’s house, outbuildings and a barn. Today only the carriage house and the remnants of the driveway access remain as a historical relic from this time. When George K. Crozer died, the Netherleigh mansion what purchased by Dr. Israel Bram as a private sanatorium until Bram sold the 38 acre Figure 7-1: Rendering of the Netherleigh Mansion property to the Salvation Army in 1945.
