I didn't find an exact location. We ended at the stone historic marker in Northampton. The marker says they slept a half mile from the Indian town Hockendauqua which is 3/4th of a mile northwest of the marker.ChuckRunshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02586242429615345885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8994237216525630797.post-85971480641067252892018-07-15T07:43:14.702-07:002018-07-15T07:43:14.702-07:00do you know exactly where the walking party of a d...do you know exactly where the walking party of a dozen people slept that night? i believe it was in front of my house-3324 howertown road northampton, right on howertown road, they knew this was going to be the new road in future, they knew whetre they were going to stop for the night, they climbed a bit of incline before they stopped as your great ancestor grasp a sapling at the summit exhaustion. i also believe lynford lardner put stenton tavern on this spot to celebrate it, but as you might know stenton tavern was destroyed by natives in oct 8 1763 supposedly. cool stuff this history. anyway i am curious how positive you are as to where they pit stopped. my personal interests besides possiobly living on the spot, is the fact my son does these tough mudder/spartan events, and many top people stay here often, thought that could be cool as i see those early runners as the same. thanks for posting, i would love to retrace the route too, but ill think i will walk a little, maybe time to have a smoke and shoot a picture with my phone:) new age timesSULEIMAN SAMI AZARhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02784866700794985735noreply@blogger.com
