History
The road was designated Pennsylvania State Route 739 in 1967 and has kept the designation since then. In 1978, the road just south of Interstate 84 to two miles (3 km) north of Dingmans Ferry was paved. From 1999 and before, the intersection with PA 434 used to be with PA 1001. The road was changed to State Route 434 on the 2003 Pike County Maps. The southern designation of PA 739, State Quadrant Route 2019, first appeared on the PennDOT's maps of Pike County in 1993. That designation has existed ever since.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“The custard is setting; meanwhile
I not only have my own history to worry about
But am forced to fret over insufficient details related to large
Unfinished concepts that can never bring themselves to the point
Of being, with or without my help, if any were forthcoming.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“Revolutions are the periods of history when individuals count most.”
—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
“... in a history of spiritual rupture, a social compact built on fantasy and collective secrets, poetry becomes more necessary than ever: it keeps the underground aquifers flowing; it is the liquid voice that can wear through stone.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
