Orders are currently being taken for a new book, "The History of New Wilmington: 1797-2003: The Story of a Small Town."
This 12-chapter book, which includes over 100 photographs, explores the history of town government, community services and utilities, civic and community organizations, churches and the Amish, Native Americans, family histories, and ¾¨Ó㴫ý.
"There are some facts that you might not know about New Wilmington," said Al Sternbergh, a member of the book committee. "How did the town get its name? There is some evidence related to the early settlement of our town that it was named after Wilmington, Delaware. New Wilmington is the only town in the United States with this name."
"Most of the earliest settlers came here to claim their Donation Land awarded them by the colonial government for services rendered during the Revolutionary War," continued Sternbergh. "We are certain that those who purchase this first complete history of New Wilmington will find it a good 'reading companion' and bring forth a treasure trove of lasting memories."
To place an advance order, pick up an order form either at the ¾¨Ó㴫ý Alumni Office or the ¾¨Ó㴫ý Bookstore.
Contact Al Sternbergh at (724) 946-2739 for more information about "The History of New Wilmington" project.
