Did you know?
Human beings probably inhabited this area as long ago as 10,000 BC; little is
known about them because much of the evidence of their existence has been
destroyed by development. At that time, sea levels were lower, and the Atlantic
Coast lay about 30 miles (48 kilometers) farther west than it does today. At the
time, the area would have resembled inland portions of southern Delaware today.
By the time the first Europeans arrived in the area in the 1600s, the coastline
was at its present location and several Native American tribes lived in the
area, including the Lenape (or Delaware]], the Sikkonese, the Assateagues, and
the Nanticoke. Pressure from English and Dutch settlers radiating outward from
Delaware forced the Lenape to migrate to upper New York state, Canada, and
Oklahoma, while the Sikkonese and Assateagues disappeared; the Nanticoke,
however, still exist in the general area today. The land later came under the
control of the Duke of York, who granted it to various landholders in the 1700s.
By the mid-1800s,the descendants of these landholders were farmers attempting to
make a living off the relatively poor land.[3]
The city was founded in 1873 by the Rev.
Robert W. Todd, of St. Paul's Methodist
Episcopal Church of Wilmington,
Delaware, as a site for Methodist camp
meetings in the spirit of similar
resorts on the New Jersey shore, such as
Ocean Grove. The Camp Meeting
Association disbanded in 1881, and in
1891, the location was incorporated by
the Delaware General Assembly as "Henlopen
City", shortly after which it was
renamed to Rehoboth Beach. |
