New 2011 Journal of York County Heritage now available.
The brand new 2011 York County Heritage Trust Journal or York County Heritage is now available through the Trust’s museum shops. The six articles cover a gamut of subjects from York County history from the 1750s through the 1970s.
They include:
“150 Years Ago: Lewis Miller’s ‘Drilling Camp, York. Pa. 1861’” by Scott L. Mingus, Sr.

Plus—an added bonus of six more letters written by James Smith, York County’s signer of the Declaration of Independence.
