  • A Timeline of Bucks County History 1600S-1900S-Rev2
    A TIMELINE OF BUCKS COUNTY HISTORY— 1600s-1900s 1600’s Before c. A.D. 1609 - The native peoples of the Delaware Valley, those who greet the first European explorers, traders and settlers, are the Lenni Lenape Indians. Lenni Lenape is a bit of a redundancy that can be translated as the “original people” or “common people.” Right: A prehistoric pot (reconstructed from fragments), dating 500 B.C.E. to A.D. 1100, found in a rockshelter in northern Bucks County. This clay vessel, likely intended for storage, was made by ancestors of the Lenape in the Delaware Valley. Mercer Museum Collection. 1609 - First Europeans encountered by the Lenape are the Dutch: Henry Hudson, an Englishman sailing under the Dutch flag, sailed up Delaware Bay. 1633 - English Captain Thomas Yong tries to probe the wilderness that will become known as Bucks County but only gets as far as the Falls of the Delaware River at today’s Morrisville. 1640 - Portions of lower Bucks County fall within the bounds of land purchased from the Lenape by the Swedes, and a handful of Swedish settlers begin building log houses and other structures in the region. 1664 - An island in the Delaware River, called Sankhickans, is the first documented grant of land to a European - Samuel Edsall - within the boundaries of Bucks County. 1668 - The first grant of land in Bucks County is made resulting in an actual settlement - to Peter Alrichs for two islands in the Delaware River. 1679 - Crewcorne, the first Bucks County village, is founded on the present day site of Morrisville.

  • Birds of Haycock Township by Paul and Brenda Teese
    The Newsletter of The Haycock Historical Society l Winter 2014 BIRDS OF HAYCOCK TOWNSHIP By Paul and Brenda Teese aycock Township not only has plenty of history, it has plenty of nature as well. Because of the abundance of Hpreserved space, we are blessed with a great diversity of plants and animals. In 2013, there were lots of bird species sighted within our township borders. According to eBird.org, an online reporting website for “birders,” there were at least 182 species seen at various locales in our township which includes part of Lake Nockamixon State Park, the State Game Lands (157) and Lake Towhee County Park. Lake Towhee Hooded Merganser warbler. Our township continues to be one of the most reliable places in Bucks County to find turkey, red-shouldered hawk (see 2014 HHS calendar), prairie warbler, hooded warbler and the red-headed woodpecker (the one where the entire head is completely red!). Notable rarities that were spotted here last year include a golden eagle, a saw-whet owl and a couple of prothonotary warblers. Ravens are becoming more common, Towhee alone, home to our historic Stokes House, yielded 138 species of birds. Our two parks were among the top sites in all of Bucks County for number of bird species reported in 2013, and the game lands provided one of the most diverse arrays of warblers in the county. In addition, Haycock boasted the high daily count for over forty bird species including loon, bufflehead and hooded merganser, three kinds of hawk, and eleven kinds of Saw-Whet Owl and they were spotted on at least eight occasions.

  • DOCUMENTING the 1737 WALKING PURCHASE Steven C. Harper
    RESEARCH NOTE MAKING HISTORY: DOCUMENTING THE 1737 WALKING PURCHASE Steven C. Harper Brigham Young University everal popular accounts tell how, in the summer of 1737, the SPennsylvania proprietors negotiated with four Delaware sachems for land west of the Delaware River that could be traversed by a walker in day-and-a-half. When the walk was executed in September, the hired walkers traveled more briskly and northwesterly than the Delawares assumed they would. Indeed the ablest walker covered more than sixty miles, resulting in Delaware complaints. Such popular retellings of the story contribute to a folk con- sciousness where there is too much certainty about what exactly happened. There is little demand for someone to cloud this story, whose so-called facts are already well known. As William Heller wrote, “there is no doubt the Indians honestly believed they had been betrayed, but the facts lead us to believe that there was no intention on the part of the whites to demand only what their deed called for.” 1 Delaware complaints did not match these facts. They were therefore sincere but mistaken and considered too simple to understand such sophisticated things. pennsylvania history: a journal of mid-atlantic studies, vol. 77, no. 4,2, 2010.
