  • 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.

American Whitewater's members are particularly interested in the portions of the proposed rule regarding Whitewater recreation opportunities (§11.220 and §11.219). While we support the proposed regulation changes, including the decision to eliminate quota provisions in §11.75(a)(3) because "they are matters of internal Department policy and do not require regulations", we have two outstanding concerns that we would like to see addressed. Specifically, we would like to work with the Bureau of State Parks to substanttvely address concerns regarding restrictions on waterfall running at Ohiopyle State Park and Whitewater launch and take-out sites across the Pennsylvania State Parks system. Waterfall running. In regard to Whitewater boating, we would like to see the proposed regulation modified to permit waterfall running in Ohiopyle State Park. Short of this, we would like the regulation changed to allow this activity with permission from the Park Superintendent. At present, draft regulation §11.2200(3) states "Waterfall running. Waterfall running is prohibited without written permission of the Department." Our preference is to see this regulation modified to state "Waterfall running. Waterfall running is permitted." If that is not acceptable, then, at a minimum, we propose changing the regulation to state, "Waterfall running.
