Thanks for the piece of information.
It is always good to get a database to have more correct terminology,
how uninteresting some historical border squabbles in some republican formations (and in places so affectionately called 'cowboy country' by a royalty poster) may as themselves be.
Not claiming any full knowledge of things american, I have a reminiscence that the colony of New Sweden actually had lands in both banks of Delaware River.... did it?
What is more interesting: does anyone happen to know, what the Mantua Creek got its name ('Mantua') for or from?
