Greetings from WILMINGTON

DELAWARE
pub: CURTEICH

Wilmington is the County Seat of New Castle County, Delaware.  In 1638 the first Swedish Expedition to the new world landed at a point on the Christiana River called the "Rocks" where they established a colony and build Fort Christiana.  In 1655 the Dutch took Fort Christiana and later on in 1664 the English took control of the colony and under the rule of William Penn. It acquired the 
Quaker Character which it has never lost.The town of Wilmington was laid out in  and grew rapidly; it is now the largest city in Delaware.
