Event Details
The towns of the Middletown Valley bear the imprint of some of the most telling events in American history: the French and Indian War, the Revolutionary War, the Civil War, and the building of the National Road - America's first interstate highway. Andrew Jackson, the nation's 7th president, described the Middletown Valley as "one of the most favored and delightful spots on earth." Its charming, historic towns include Middletown, Myersville, Burkittsville, Wolfsville, and Braddock Heights. Join Bob Savitt from Middletown Valley's Historical Society for a presentation exploring the unique history of these towns and their inhabitants.
