Excerpt from A Brief History of Lancaster County: With Special Reference to the Growth and Development of Its Institutions, Designed for the School and Home IN teaching the history of the United States, I have found that Pennsylvania students are lacking in knowledge of their own Commonwealth, and that there is even greater lack of intelligence concerning the county to which they belong. This has enabled me to understand and appreciate the demand that has come from the teachers and other persons officially connected with the schools of Lan caster county, for a history of the county which shall be available for the school and the family. Lancaster county is one that demands attention and interest, because of its rich material resources, its large population, and its historical associations. Then, too, being one of the portions of Pennsylvania that was earliest settled. When emigration to the West began, the people seemed to feel that the population was crowding here and with an inherited hardihood and enterprise many of them became the pioneers of the nearer and more remote Western States, and we think it is not exaggeration to say that there is hardly a State or Territory included within our great domain which has not a representative from this county.
