Swiss Mennonites settled the village of Schoeneck in 1733 purchasing 1500 acres from the Penn brothers. These early settlers were attracted to this area by the heavy timber and rich limestone land. The original town was laid out around 1780 – 1790. Schoeneck in Pennsylvania Dutch means, “pretty corner."\\
