Delawareans of all sorts were forced to come to terms with their changing world. Loyalties, ideals, and even family bonds were tested, lives and livelihoods were threatened, and independence was on the horizon. Sitting prominently at the mouth of Delaware Bay, Lewes was a lynchpin in the defenses of America’s most vital waterway, just 89 nautical miles from Philadelphia, where whispers of independence were beginning to take hold.
