Economy
editWhat form of ==Map of territorial claims== The following off-site maps show the various claims of the original Thirteen Colonies: [1], [2], [3], and [4]. If this information could be included in a map of this province's claims, it would be great. (This request was originally made by jengod, and I moved it here.) – Quadell (talk) (bounties) 16:06, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

Never a province
editThe word "province" was never part of the official name of any of the thirteen British colonies that later formed the United States, yet nine of the titles of the thirteen articles on those colonies include "province". All nine articles should be moved and retitled. WCCasey (talk) 19:38, 10 January 2016 (UTC)
- Errm, this charter for the province looks official. older ≠ wiser 01:57, 11 January 2016 (UTC)

Montgomery County didn't yet exist
editMontgomery County didn't exist under provincial times in Pennsylvania. That county was created out of Philadelphia and Bucks Counties in 1784. Bill S. (talk) 04:42, 30 January 2018 (UTC)
Colonial capital
editAs per the History section of the Harrisburg article, that city did not even exist during the colonial era. What we now know as Independence Hall in Philadelphia was the Pennsylvania State House at the time of the American Revolution. 98.18.227.164 (talk) 17:47, 10 August 2018 (UTC)
