The History of Lincoln Park
The first settler of Milton was Marcus Huling, who established a tavern in 1772 along the Susquehanna River at this location, which is now Lincoln Park. The British and Seneca Indians stormed and burned the famed Fort Freeland located north of McEwensville on July 28, 1779. Every small settlement in this area, including Hurling's tavern, was burned to the ground during the uprising. It is believed that he was a British spy who conveniently fled before the historic event.HM Number | HM1N7H |
