Summary
"To commemorate the 175th anniversary of the founding of Conestoga a brochure bearing the title 'Reflections on a County Village: A history of Conestoga. 1805-1980' was published by Conestoga Township and its anniversary committee...In this seventy-two page historical retrospective there is scant pictorial evidence that African Americans ever lived in Conestoga. Only in the narrative and on two maps is there evidence that Conestoga at one time had a significant African American population."
