Phillip Seitz - Prelude

Telling the first of three stories Phillip Seitz, Social Historian, worked for 9 years at Cliveden, located in the Philadelphia neighborhood, Germantown. During that time an enormous number of the Chew Family Papers were discovered and turned over to The Historical Society of Pennsylvania. Included in those papers were letters Benjamin Chew received from the overseer of his plantation in the state of Delaware. We talked in his Mt. Airy neighborhood home.
