Description:Excerpt from History of Northampton County (Pennsylvania) And the Grand Valley of the Lehigh, Vol. 2 The original township of Bethlehem was erected in 1746. It embraced within its limits all of the area of Upper and Lower Nazareth townships, and the boroughs of Bethlehem, Freemansburg and Nazareth. Its present boundaries are: On the north, Lower Nazareth; on the'east, Palmer town ship; ou the south, the Lehigh river, separating it from Lower Saucon township; and on the west by Hanover township and a portion of Lehigh county. The township is watered by the Lehigh river, Monocacy creek, and several smaller streams that empty into the Lehigh; one of them was once called Nancy's Run, from an old colored fortune-teller who lived about a half-mile up the creek. The lands now embraced in the lower portion of the township were formerly known as Drylands, which were thought to be irreclaimable, arid and' barren, and deemed unfit for habitation; they are now, however, among the most productive of the county. This territory was a favorite place for the hunting and fishing ground of the Indians, and it was between Free mansburg and Bethlehem that their famous Minisink Path crossed the Lehigh river. Arrow-heads and stone pestles and even tomahawks have often been brought to light by the farmer's plough.
