A reading of my Great Aunt’s original historical fiction work about South Eastern PA in the early 1700s. The tale blossoms forth with adventure, forbidden romance, and key local legacy research on the Lenape people and our ancestors of Germanic-Swiss descent. At the end of each reading, I’ll include how this tale wove itself into my own life AS I WAS READING IT to my 10-year-old daughter!

    28-34 Final Chapters

    As we bring the plots of settlers, Mennonites, Catholics, Lenape, and tribal leaders to a close. We hear many themes (whether fiction or fact) still ring true in the human condition. This final reading leaves the reader pondering what could be different in our regard for one another that would change the future course of history.

    Home of Die Bergfrau and On the Susquehanna - these two chapters give lens into the readers maternal and paternal lineages from Oley Valley (setting of settlers in Wilderness Path) and Marysville, along the Susquehanna. And, of course, this brings up interesting topics to discuss along the way!

    15 Snow Shoe

    Chapter 15 is read and reader shares her personal ties and similarities at the time she was reading the book aloud to her daughter - moon names and wood fire heat source. The most exciting story slips in when Sun Rising tells the tale of their people’s migration and the reasons why - including links to William Penn. The reader has much to share as William Penn is a significant synchronized character in her life.
