It's Pennsylvania's birth certificate! It's the 1681 Charter given to William Penn by England's Charles II. While the Charter is on display to the public only once a year, on its birthday in March, you now have a 24/7 backstage pass to see this historic document online. Follow Charter expert and state archivist Linda Ries as she explains the origins and details about Pennsylvania's Public Document #1. Pennsylvania Heritage editor Michael J. O'Malley caps the presentation with an insightful interview with Ms. Ries.
