Perhaps other parts of the U.S. know about neighboring
Philadelphia and little else. Those
around Bensalem, PA know that their tradition goes back to the 17th century
before there was a United States of America.
Our township seal states that the town was established in 1692, but as
far back as 1670, the land was surveyed for residency on orders of the
governor.
Joseph Growden was one of the original landowners and his
legacy lives on even to this day. Soon
after he arrived, he built himself a beautiful residence on the northern part
of his manor in Bensalem. Just a bit
later, more English colonists would immigrate into the township and influence
it.
Yes, Bensalem, Pennsylvania is rich in history. Today, when people need plumbing work done
here or anywhere around Bucks and Montgomery counties they call Joe Canty. Joe is the owner of All Drains Plumbing. From all of the Canty family to all of you in
our beautiful, historic area Merry Christmas and a Happy Holiday Season.
