Many years have passed since the Swiss emigrants left Switzerland and began the long journey that changed their lives forever. The trip was dangerous and difficult, but the prospect of a new life in a new land brought them to the United States of America. There were casualties along the way, but some of the hardy survivors went on to establish the community we know today as Southern Adams County. Some of the settlers had come for new opportunities in the great land of America. Others had come because of tremendous persecution for their Anabaptist beliefs and practices.
