Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Early History and Reminiscences of Catasauqua in Pennsylvania When I was a boy, my attention was drawn to the early history of this community by my parents, my grand-parents, and my great-grand-father in narrating to me occurrences, incidents and reminiscences which related to local affairs on both sides of the Lehigh River. My mother´s great-grand-parents (the Mickleys) located in Whitehall township near Egypt along Coplay Creek in 1733, and her grand-parents (the Swartzes) in the Irish Settlement along Dry Run in 1787. My father migrated from Mauch-Chunk to Biery´s-Port in 1830; I was horn on the Christian Swartz plantation in 1839; and my parents established their residence at Catasauqua in 1845; and here I have been until now, excepting my absence from home while serving in the Civil War from 1861 to 1864. I was admitted to the Bar of Lehigh County in 1868, and, during a long practice of my profession as an attorney-at-law at Catasauqua since that time, my business related almost wholly to the settlement of estates and the transmission of title to property in the borough and the surrounding townships; and, besides being thus identified with local affairs as a legal adviser, I was practically concerned for a time in the administration of the local government as a Justice of the Peace and Chief Burgess.
