Hi there, It's been a while since we have released an episode, but with the winter season here at the library, things are a bit slower, so we are kicking off in early December with a special episode that asks the question, "What to the following have in common?"
* Our Association Board Member Ann Reed
* William Penn and his sons
* The Pennsylvania Indian wars of the 1700s
* A wonderful song by a local artist
Well after you listen to this very special episode, you'll know the answer! Thank you to both Ann Reed and Van Wagner for their contributions to this episode.
Think of this episode as a Pennsylvania History Lesson about how Indian attacks against European Settlers, during a period of over 20 years, in revenge for being swindled by Thomas Penn and others, of more than a million acres of prime real estate in 1737, an area which would later become northern Bucks County and Northampton County areas of northeastern Pennsylvania.
Have a Merry Christmas and a safe and Happy New Year!
