    1. [PAMONTGO-L] Hessian burials
    2. The following excerpt is from an article about Homeopathy in Reading, PA, by Michael B. Kane. The web address for the entire article follows the excerpt. This was one of the subjects in today's Berks Co. Hist. Soc. Newsletter. In reading through this article I came across this info on Hessian burials, and then recalled that not long ago someone was inquiring about Hessian burials. However, I can not remember which list this was on, thus I'm posting this to several lists in hopes that the inquirer will see this.

Buried there were many of > the Hessian mercenaries (captured by George Washington in his Christmas Eve > attack on Trenton) who died at the Hessian Camp on Mount Penn." http://www.homeoint.org/cazalet/reading/index.htm
