     OUR LOCAL HERITAGE
     http://www.alle-kiskitoday.com/articles/archives/8
     
     THE  FIRST:  Conrad Weiser, a German frontiersman,  scout  and
     civic figure who spent several years with the Seneca tribe, is
     believed to have been one of the first recorded white  men  in
     the  Kiski Valley. He recorded in his journal sometime between
     the  1740s  and  1760s  that he crossed "Kiskeminetoes  creek"
     reaching the Allegheny River later that day. He may have  well
     been returning from negotiations with Indians near Kittanning.
