Our Town Nanticoke

Season 2019 Episode 2 | 55m 30s

Follow the tide waters of the Susquehanna River and hear whispers of the past echo to present day… Nanticoke was named after a Native American nation who traveled through our region on their way northward. Centuries later, immigrants mined veins of anthracite in the same area most people today call a “quiet bedroom community” in Luzerne County.
