One of the most well known and trusted of the York County, Pennsylvania local histories. The book was originally written in two sections the first section containing the history of the county and its boroughs. The second section being comprised of biographies of the counties pioneers and leading citizens. In reproducing this book we kept the section separate as they were originally intended to be. They are however linked together using electronic bookmarks, so that the user can easily switch back and forth between then. The search feature is also able to perform the requested search on both documents at once. This is a valuable reference for anyone who is researching the county itself or for those doing genealogical research on families from York County.
