abstract:This article considers how struggles over land shaped the process of “anglicization” in colonial Pennsylvania. It focuses on a property dispute in the 1720s that pitted a second-generation Swedish yeoman and his fellow “Ancient Settlers” against an aspiring English Quaker entrepreneur and his high-placed allies. Drawing on property records, official minutes, and contemporary correspondence to reconstruct the controversy, the article demonstrates that disputes over land not only mobilized the Swedish population in Pennsylvania as “Swedes” but also embedded them within the colony as property-owning and rights-bearing British subjects. Their eighteenth-century cultural transformation was ultimately a negotiated process of “Britonization” that fostered appeals to ethnic and national forms of distinction as well as to shared attachments to Englishness and Britishness.

abstract:From 1745 to 1755 Moravian missionaries maintained a presence in the Indian town of Shamokin, both pursuing their desire to minister to its inhabitants and fulfilling a request by the Oneida chief Shikellamy to operate a blacksmith shop serving the needs of the Iroquois. Though the exchange of goods and services at the smithy contributed to the civil relations between the Moravians and the Indigenous inhabitants, a close reading of the Shamokin Mission Diary reveals that it was the friendships forged between Native and Moravian women in the early years of the mission that integrated the Moravians into the community at Shamokin and won them friends. As an examination of the relationships and impact of the women present at Shamokin in this period, this article situates itself within existing research on Moravian missionary activity and gender relations in colonial Pennsylvania.
