The
background for MY RIVER
Preparing for the 100th reunion, it was
remembered that composer William Prunty, descendant of Gov. Ephraim Morgan
and David Morgan, had sketched the beginnings of a musical based on the
famous Indian-fight incident, while David's family was living at Pricketts
Fort. This play and music was discovered among William's music, and one of
the songs, MY RIVER: MONONGAHELA, was used during the opening celebration
for the 100th reunion in 2007. Jonathan Turner performed the song in
colonial garb.
