It is part of the Lehigh Valley, which has a population of 861,899 and is the 68th-most populous metropolitan area in the U.S. as of the 2020 census.
This Pennsylvania village was named after the family of John Jacob Mickley (1697–1769), who settled here in 1745.[1]
St. John's United Church of Christ, commonly called Mickley's Church, was built in 1849. Originally known as the South Whitehall Church, it was a Union Church with both Reformed and Lutheran congregations. Jacob Mickley (1794–1888), great-grandson of John Jacob, was an elder who served on the building committee.[2]
