Change Sussex co. Delaware back to its original name of Whorekill co.


Change Sussex co. Delaware back to its original name of Whorekill co.
The Issue
William Penn determined that the Mispillion River would be the dividing line between Kent and Sussex County Delawarein 1683? He did so when he changed the name of St. Jones County to Kent. He also named the southernmost county Sussex, replacing Whorekill, that was named by the original Dutch settlers in Lewes.
We need to reverse this British colonization name now before all our history is lost. Please sign the petition and share it to spread the word.
