Delaware Continued from above....Henry Hudson, who sailed for Holland at the time, found Delaware in 1609. Delaware was named for the governor, Thomas West, who was Baron De La Warr. A Dutch settlement bit the dust in 1631 and one in what is now Wilmington but called then New Sweden, fell to Dutch troops in 1655. England took over in 1664 and William Pen named it the lower Three Counties in 1682. It was almost under self rule after 1704 and this state fought as a separate state in the American Revolution. Delaware was the very first state to ratify the constitution in 1787.
Delaware was a slave state but stayed in the Union during the Civil War. A gunpowder mill was built in 1802, near Wilmington and this laid the base for Delaware's big chemical industry. Main products now include textiles, paper, vulcanized fiber, medical supplies, machine tools and machinery, metal products, and automobiles. The state pioneered the food canning industry and grows a lot of hay, potatoes, soybeans and corn. Broiler chicken farms are big here and dairy products and fishing are other large industries.
A few popular sites to visit are the Hagley Museum, the Delaware Museum of Natural History, and the oldest Protestant church still in use today -- Holy Trinity Church, which was built in 1698. Recreational areas which are popular, include the Delaware seashore, Cape Henlopen, Rehoboth Beach, and Trap Pond State Park.
