The year 2024 marks the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the Declaration of Independence of thirteen of the sixteen British Colonies. This website will be the gateway for your journey into the history of Bedford County, which was just five years old when the independence of the United States of America was declared.
This website will also serve as a guide to the events scheduled for the Semiquincentennial Celebration under the aegis of the America250PA project.
