Schuylkill County's history is closely tied to the story of Anthracite coal mining, and that history mirrored the growth of America for more than two centuries.
In Schuylkill and surrounding counties, the demands of labor combined with rising tensions between the Irish-American coal mining community and the coal mine owners and operators resulted in almost two decades of terror.
In the fertile agricultural valleys between the Blue Mountain range in the south and the Susquehanna River to the north, generations of farming families have helped feed their neighbors in the mines, on the rails, on the canals and in the towns between Port Clinton and Zion Grove.

After the American defeats at the battles of the Brandywine and Germantown and the subsequent British occupation of Philadelphia, Washington chose Valley Forge for his winter quarters because it was defensible and strategically located to enable him to protect Congress, then in session at York, Pennsylvania, from a sudden British attack.
It was at Valley Forge, however, in February 1778, that Baron Friedrich Wilhelm von Steuben trained, disciplined, and reorganized the army.
