It sits in the Delaware Valley just north of Philadelphia in the Southeastern portion of the state boarding New Jersey. This book is broken up into two main sections. The first deals with the history of the county with such things as: early settlements on the Delaware, Dutch occupation, Indian hostilities and land claims, pioneer life, Dutch & English immigration, the Militia, the court system, slavery within the county, along with the discussion of the development & history of the various towns or boroughs found throught the county.
