1964 Schnecksville was quite different from what it is today. At that time the village was surrounded by farms and farmland, and many barns still could be found within the village. Clothing hung from washlines (even in winter), and Trexler Orchards reached up to Schnecksville Elementary School. The lone business beyond the north end of town was Ray's Men's Shop. There were no stoplights in Schnecksville—in fact, you could drive from Neffs to Route 22 without encountering any stoplights at all! It was a simpler and less hurried time, which some still remember with great fondness. Many thanks to the Baer family for sharing these two wonderful aerial shots of long-ago Schnecksville. The photos were taken on a winter afternoon on a school day. _____________________ The immigrant Adam Schneck (1718-1794), came to this area in 1757 and aquired 271 acres just north of the present-day village. The village of Schnecksville was founded in 1840, or possibly earlier, by Daniel Schneck (1794-1860), a grandson of the immigrant Adam Schneck. Daniel owned a brickmaking factory for 20 years, supplying the brick for the early houses in Schnecksville. He laid out town lots and built a nucleus of around 10 brick houses. European settlement of this area originally began in the 1740s-1750s when Lutheran and Reformed German-speaking immigrants from southwest Germany, Alsace, and Switzerland arrived to claim land. Most were farmers, and they spoke a dialect commonly called Pennsylvania Dutch. (Old Order Mennonites and Amish people are the primary speakers of the dialect today.) This northern part of Lehigh County retained its rural character and its Pennsylvania Dutch identity up through the 1970s, with the dialect still in common use at that time among many older people. Today, some family farms remain, however, a significant portion of the landscape has been transitioned from agricultural use to housing, businesses, and stores. The Trexler Nature Preserve is located in Schnecksville and consists of 1,100 acres of pristine wilderness along the Jordan Creek. The 29-acre Lehigh Valley Zoo, home to 125 species of animals, is located in the Nature Preserve. Schnecksville is also the home of Lehigh Carbon Community College and Crystal Spring Farm, a fourth-generation dairy farm with a retail store.
