York History

“Settled in 1624 on a site called Agamenticus by Captain John Smith, who had explored the area in 1614, it became the first English city on the American continent when Sir Ferdinando Gorges endowed it with a city charter under the name of Gorgeana in 1641. The Massachusetts Bay Company took over the Gorges property in 1652, revoked the charter, reduced Gorgeana to the status of a town, and changed its name to York (for the town in Yorkshire, England)” - Britannica (britannica.com/place/York-Maine)

“As one of the earliest English settlements in the country, York became the seat of government for the Province of Maine and thrived as a center of maritime commerce. Through the centuries, York has been a destination for people seeking refuge in its natural beauty and pace of life. The culture and history of the area continue to captivate visitors to this day. Come to Old York and let us engage you in coastal Maine’s heritage, for an afternoon, a day, or a lifetime.” - the York Historical Society (oldyork.org)
