Excerpt from Pennsylvania Place Names
Why is it worth while to study place names.2 Perhaps a sufficient answer is found in the fact that the subject is one of unusual geographical, historical, ethnological, and linguistic interest. It is a cause for regret that men and women who are otherwise well-informed should be so generally ignorant of the history and the meaning of the names that they use every day.
