Allen, also a former Mayor of Philadelphia and successful businessman, drew up plans for the rural village in 1762. Despite its formal name, from the beginning, nearly everyone called it "Allen's town." Allen hoped Northamptontown would turn into a commercial center because of its location along the Lehigh River. The low water level most of the year, however, made river trade impractical. Sometime in the early 1770s, William Allen apparently gave the property to his son, James, who built a country home called Trout Hall after his father's hunting and fishing lodge. Even by the time of the American Revolution, Allentown remained little more than a small village of Pennsylvania Dutch, more properly German, farmers and tradesmen, but continued its development as a center of marketing for local farmers from the post revolutionary years into the 1820s. The U.S. Census of 1810 placed it at the heart of the largest grain producing regions in the country.

Then the YEA chair would be vacant and George Dixon could step in. GH already socially communicates like certain politicians. ;-p Edited August 4, 2017 by xandandl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be there early with my traditional tail-gate across from the HAM-FAM. Stop by and introduce yourself. Greet me by my DCP name and you get a dog and a beer. It would be nice to put faces with all of these names. Edited August 3, 2017 by Old Corps Guy 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
