  • 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.

    Lehigh Canal Recreation Commission July 17, 2018 Elaine L. Chao Secretary of Transportation United States Department of Transportation 1200 New Jersey Ave., SE Washington, DC 20590 Re: BUILD 2018: Riverside Drive Multimodal Revitalization Corridor Project Dear Ms. Chao: This letter is to express support for the Lehigh Valley Planning Commission’s request for a 2018 BUILD grant. The grant funding requested is a missing link to fully connect the 165-mile D&L Trail. The project location near the mid-point of this long-distance trail will impact the four townships and three boroughs that the Lehigh Canal Recreation Commission represents via Allentown’s Riverside Drive Multimodal Revitalization Corridor project. We include Parryville, East Penn, Mahoning, and Franklin townships as well as Lehighton, Weissport and Jim Thorpe Boroughs. Riverside Drive is a 3.25 mile multi-municipal commuter corridor, includes a twelve foot bike and walking commuter corridor that is part of the main north-south route of the D&L Trail. This is a collaboration of more than 20 local public, private and non-profit organizations working together. It is a critical commuting link in the 165-mile Delaware & Lehigh National Heritage Corridor Trail network and offers an alternative travel option to regional trail systems and job centers. It improves connectivity between rural and urban areas of the Lehigh Valley and eastern Pennsylvania. The project is located along a vacated rail corridor adjacent to a redevelopment project known as The Waterfront, in the City of Allentown. On the large former brownfield, formerly Lehigh Structural Steel, the project will provide a river walk, floating docks to support public access to the river, two public plazas, and a main street through the adjacent site redevelopment.
