An important Indian trail, key to Pennsylvania's fur trade in the 17th century, crossed the present highway near here. It linked trading posts on the lower Schuylkill and Indian towns to the west. The Dutch, Swedes, and English fought one another for control of path.

Marker is at the intersection of Wilmington Pike and Church Ave. when traveling south on Wilmington Pike.
