The Independent Newspaper, 1898-1952

 

Founded by Elwood S. Moser in June of 1875 as the Providence Independent newspaper , in 1898 the newspaper changed its name to The Independent. After Moser’s death in 1935, the paper continued to be published by the Moser estate until Paul W. Levengood took over as publisher in 1937. While focusing on Collegeville and Trappe, the newspaper reports stories from all around Montgomery County, Pennsylvania and beyond. In 1952, it merged with the Montgomery Transcript to become The Independent and Montgomery Transcript.

The digital copies of the newspaper available here were produced in cooperation between Ursinus College and Historic Trappe. Please contact Historic Trappe for permissions that fall outside of educational use.
