    Drums, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, United States

  •   Population: 
    2,504

Drums is an unincorporated community in Butler Township, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania. Located about 1,500 feet (460 m) altitude in the Sugarloaf Valley, it is situated east of Interstate 81 and north of Nescopeck Creek, a tributary of the Susquehanna River. The village was originally named "Drum's" after the Drum family, whose members developed the village's first school, post office, hotels, churches, roads, and businesses. Family members held positions as pioneers, land developers, justices of the peace, postmasters, school presidents, educators, tailors, shoe makers, hotel proprietors, lawyers, and Pennsylvania state legislators. The original Drums Post Office building still remains also, but is now a business center still located directly across the road from the Drums Hotel. During the 1960s the post office operation was moved next to the hotel into a newer brick building. The Drum Post Office operated there up until the early 21st century when it closed due to the 2008 national economic collapse. In addition to the St. Johns Church and cemetery founded in 1799, George Drum was also a founding member of the church. Other family members are buried at Drums Community Cemetery and Conyngham Union Cemetery and are all buried at St. John's Cemetery, Drums. The Drum family legend says that George survived and went on to develop the town of Drums when he reached maturity in the late 18th century.

History

The village was originally named "Drum's" after the Drum family, whose members developed the village's first school, post office, hotels, churches, roads, and businesses.

George Drum was the first settler within the village of Conyngham, which is where his estate still stands in impeccable condition after 2 centuries of Drum family ownership. George was also a founding member of St. Johns Church and cemetery founded in 1799.

During the 1960s the post office operation was moved next to the hotel into a newer brick building. The Drums Post Office operated there up until the early 21st century when it closed after nearly two centuries of service due to the 2008 national economic collapse. According to the 1790 United States Federal Census, George Drum lived in "Allen Township" (now West Bethlehem) before moving his family to the Nescopeck Valley (now Sugarloaf Valley) to initiate a hotel business eventually establishing Drums town and establishing the Drums post office. A 1758 map of "Beth Bethlehem" clearly shows that "Allen township" was the area of what is now West Bethlehem.
