The oldest inland city
in the United States
of America, snuggled
along the north and
west by the mighty Susquehanna
River, was originally
settled in 1718. The
Honorable James Hamilton
laid it out in building
lots and out lots, and
in 1730, it became the
county seat. John Wright,
a prominent citizen,
gave it the name "Lancaster,"
after the place in England
where he formerly lived.
