Freedom, PA The Freedom NB Ch. # 5454 PMG 25 $20 1882 DB Fr. 555 Radar SN 797/B80557 pp B/7 dtd. June 4, 1900. This is just the second $20 Date Back (the other is recorded twice with two different bank SNs) to be reported from this Beaver County community. It has nice margins and color making for a solid for the grade. Faded, but legible signatures are found for E.O. McCauley, Cashier and J.W. Craig, President. From the Carl Agostini Collection.
In 1824, the Harmony Society, founded in Iptingen, Germany, returned to Pennsylvania, from Indiana. The society settled in what is now Ambridge, PA, five miles up the Ohio River. One of the reasons the society left Indiana was because of harassment for their abolitionist activities. Their settlement was in Beaver County along the Ohio River. There they founded "Ökonomie," now better known as Old Economy Village. Here the Society gained worldwide recognition for its religious devotion and economic prosperity. The Harmonites were abolitionists, and began placing signs along the Ohio River with one word, "FREEDOM". The area of present-day Freedom, PA, began to be called "Freedom" on maps of the Ohio River used by the steamboat navigators.
