From Indian trails to a slackwater navigation canal, three railroad lines, an airfield, and a concrete expressway, to a pair of expanding recreational trails, the history of Upper Providence Township, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania evolved along the confluence of the Schuylkill River and Perkiomen Creek. Shaped like a diamond puzzle piece until 1896, its history is linked to evolving movement and settlements beginning with Indian tribes, William Penn, and the American Revolution. Opening of the Pottstown Expressway, joined by expansion of the sewer plant, led to rapid development of township farmland. November 12, 2005 marked the Upper Providence Township Incorporation Bicentennial.
