"This history of a small New England town has been written to co-incide with the bicentennial celebration of the birth of our free nation. In the year 1976, Danville not only observes this momentous occasion, but celebrates its own 216th birthday as well, since it was incorporated in 1760, as the Parish of Hawke, under the reign og George II of England.(20,69) It is interesting to note that on the same day the Township of Hawke was born (February 22, 1760), a young man destined to figure in both these anniversaries was celebrating his 28th birthday. That young man was George Washington, later to become the new nation's first president. (21)".....RJR
