Description:In the eighteenth century, a ferry and mill marked the crossroads beginnings of Yardleyville in Makefield Township. New modes of transportation transformed the village, commerce and industry flourished, and the population increased substantially.

This volume is compiled mostly from this locally assembled selection of images, and recounts Yardley’s history with eloquence. These pages revisit the cigar stores, trolley tracks, ice cream shops, schools, the intersection of Main and Afton, and many other well-known sites throughout the borough. The face of the old toll collector, the festivities of the “Canal Days” and “Harvest Day” celebrations, and countless days at Lake Afton, the canal, or the river are all captured in this treasured account of Yardley’s past.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
