Twp Histories: Bethlehem created following partition pres Bucks Co Mark 1746. 1766 Taxables Nicholas Michael. Twp laid out within its limits the present Twp of Bethlehem and Upper/Lower Nazareth. The rest was barren land and considered worthless. Immediately after the Walking Purchase Sep 1737, land speculators residing in Philadelphia located some of these land warrants along the Mosroasy (?) Creek & Ranny's Run - Moravians arrived in Bethlehem 1740 - purchased Naz tract 1743 - 5000 acres & 1000 acres at Bethlehem. During Indian Wars people in country fled to town of Bethlehem & Nazareth for protection - no rcd of murder in twp.
