The original village was founded by the Harmony Society in 1805, but the town bought itself from the Society ten years later It was first settled by the Rapps and the Zieglers and a few other families. The Zleglere will have a great family reunion dur ing the which will go down Into Harmony history as the 1915 "Old Home Week." There will be firemen's sports and a carnival lasting through the observance. The Harmony Society was compris ed largely of persecuted Germans led by Father Rapp. It failed to prosper, however, because of the strictness of its rules It made no appeal to the youth of the community, malaria made inroads upon Its ranks and It finally disposed of Its settlement to a hardier band led by the Zieglers and moved to what Is now Indiana, Pa, earlier known as New Harmony.
