How Much Local History Do You Know?

York, Pennsylvania (once known as Yorktown) was founded in 1741 by settlers from the Philadelphia area and named after the English city of York. By the time of the American Revolution, the population was primarily made up of German and Scots-Irish immigrants. York played a pivotal role during the Revolutionary War, serving as the temporary home of the Continental Congress from September 1777 to June 1778. 

 

During this time, the Articles of Confederation were drafted and adopted at the original Court House, which was later reconstructed in 1976 as the Colonial Court House. While historians typically consider York the fourth capital of the United States, following Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Lancaster, the city proudly embraces its role in early American governance, a legacy reflected in the names of many local businesses and organizations.

 

Throughout the 19th century, York continued to shape American history. It was the site of political intrigue during the Revolutionary War, including the Conway Cabal against George Washington. During the Civil War, York became the largest Northern town to be occupied by Confederate forces, who stayed briefly in June 1863. General Jubal Early demanded supplies and a tribute from local citizens before moving on under orders from General Lee. 

 

The city also played a humanitarian role, with the York U.S. Army Hospital treating thousands of wounded Union soldiers after the battles of Antietam and Gettysburg. In the decades that followed, York emerged as a regional industrial hub, contributing to the country’s railroad, steam engine, and papermaking industries. Today, York proudly showcases its deep roots through its preserved architecture — from colonial buildings to gothic churches — highlighting a rich past that continues to shape its character.
