Burnside Plantation Description

In 1748, Moravian missionary James Burnside and his wife, Mary, built the first single-family house in Bethlehem on 500 acres adjacent to the Moravian settlement. At the time, Moravians lived communally so this was an historic move. Seven acres of that original farm are being developed as a living history museum to interpret farming between 1748 and 1848.
