     OUR LOCAL HERITAGE
     http://www.alle-kiskitoday.com/articles/archives/8
     
     THE  FIRST:  It is unclear who was the first European  passing
     through   the   Kiski   Valley;  though  there   are   several
     possibilities. The first unrecorded visit may have been French
     fur  traders, who later developed an alliance with the natives
     here. The French eventually established a fort at the junction
     of the 3 rivers, the Allegheny, the Monongahela, and the Ohio.
     We  know  it today as Fort Pitt. Read more interesting history
     at Our Local Heritage at above site. Click on “Archives” for a
     list of history tidbits.
