Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soldiers, champions and innovators have all hailed from this buzzing borough on the banks of the Schuylkill River. Founded in 1761 as Pottsgrove, the small country town was transformed into a thriving industrial center with the coming of the P&R Railroad. Local historian Michael T. Snyder brings together a collection of vignettes to chronicle this fascinating history. From tales of gallant Civil War colonel John Rutter Brooke and the dedicated Dr. Alice Sheppard to memories of summer baseball games long past and a community united in the aftermath of Hurricane Agnes, Snyder deftly captures the spirit and history of Pottstown.

Download or read book Legendary Locals of Pottstown written by Sue Repko and Ed Berger and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2013 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From its founding by Colonial ironworker John Potts through its heyday as a manufacturing hub in the 20th century, Pottstown has been defined by entrepreneurs, inventors, and hard-working immigrants with dreams of a better life. It has been home to a variety of churches, community organizations, and businesses that have sustained and entertained residents and visitors for more than 260 years. It has also produced its fair share of musicians, doctors, nurses, and professional athletes, like Dick Ricketts, the first pick in the 1955 NBA draft. Pottstown is a culinary capital in its own right as the place where Amanda Smith started Mrs. Smith's pies, and where Dan Brunish sells his famous sausage sandwiches out of the deli started by his grandparents in 1937. Today, with the vision of people like Marta Kiesling and Deborah Stimson-Snow, cofounders of Steel River Playhouse, and Dr. Karen Stout, president of Montgomery County Community College, Pottstown is reinventing itself as a center for art, technology, higher education, and recreation on the Schuylkill River in southeastern Pennsylvania.

Download or read book The Jim Crow North written by Matthew George Washington and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2024-06-25 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Located approximately forty miles northwest of Philadelphia, the working-class borough of Pottstown does not immediately come to mind as an influential site of the Black freedom struggle. Yet this small town in Pennsylvania served as a significant hub of interracial civil rights activism with regional as well as national impact. In The Jim Crow North: The Struggle for Civil Rights in Pottstown, Pennsylvania, Matthew George Washington adds another interpretive perspective to historiography by using both the "freedom North" and the "long civil rights movement" theoretical models to frame the borough's unique history. Primary documents, including newspaper accounts, census records, oral histories, and correspondence present a vivid account of a rapidly changing town, from the dawn of its civil rights movement during World War II to the revitalization of its NAACP branch in the early 1950s and its activism throughout the 1960s. Placing special emphasis on the demographic nature of the movement, Washington explores how interracial collaboration among the working class made up the movement's critical base—and how, through it all, Black activists remained front and center. This critical examination of Pottstown illuminates the struggle for African American civil rights in one of the long-ignored urban spaces of the North, providing a rich and in-depth portrait of the Black freedom struggle of postwar America.

Download or read book Historical Sketch of St. Aloysius' Parish written by William Bishop Schuyler and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historical Sketch of St. Aloysius' Parish: Pottstown, Pennsylvania The aim of this sketch is to present some facts about the planting and growth of Catholicity in Pottstown. The treatment is necessarily from a layman's point of view. Much more could be said about the leaders of the people. The clergy, on account of their high position, are better known than the laity, and information relating to the priests can be obtained elsewhere by those who wish, but there is danger of losing all record of the rank and file of the faithful unless they are remembered in a book like this. How much does the present generation know about the early congregation? When the ones that were acquainted with those early Catholics are, in the course of natural events, removed from this earth, it is to be hoped that in these pages will be found some memorials of those people who laid the foundation of the blessings we now enjoy. This book is not a complete history. It contains merely some of the raw material which may recall to the older parishioners other facts relating to the past. In the first part the attempt is made to give some idea of the development of Catholicity from the missionary period of this section when the faithful were few in number, to the present time, when the ministrations of our religion are obtained with comparative ease. In the last part is a record of events you are more familiar with, which will be more interesting to future generations.
