Yardley revisits the 200 year history of the borough through photographs. In the eighteenth century, a ferry and mill marked the crossroads beginnings of Yardleyville in Makefield Township. New modes of transportation transformed the village, commerce and industry flourished, and the population increased substantially. Soon the people of Yardley yearned for their own government--their own town--and Yardley, Pennsylvania, was incorporated in 1895. When Yardley Borough celebrated its centennial, donations and loans of photographs revealing Yardley's history were collected. This volume is compiled mostly from this locally assembled selection of images, and recounts Yardley's history with eloquence. The face of the old toll collector, the festivities of the "Canal Days" and "Harvest Day" celebrations, and countless days at Lake Afton, the canal, or the river are all captured in this treasured account of Yardley's past.
