A propos de cet article

Folio broadside approx. 12¼" x 7¾", 16 lines of printed text followed by the signatures of 41 citizens of Chester County, docketed in ink on the verso; previous folds, light toning and spotting, top right corner chipped away; all else very good. Meetings began to be held as early as 1819 to create a new county out of parts of Chester and Lancaster Counties, to be named Penn County. The movement to create Penn County, with Kurtztown as the county seat began in earnest in 1825, and that a bill for this purpose was put to a vote in 1838 where it failed by a single vote. (See Cope & Guthey, History of Chester County (1881); and The Centennial History of Kurtztown (1915). Not found in OCLC.
