Tioga County, Pennsylvania
Tioga County is a county located in the U.S. state of Pennsylvania. As of the 2010 census, the population was 41,981.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://quickfacts.census.gov/qfd/states/42/42117.html )〕 Its county seat is Wellsboro.〔(【引用サイトリンク】accessdate=2011-06-07 )〕 The county was created on March 26, 1804, from part of Lycoming County and later organized in 1812. It is named for the Tioga River.
==History==
The county was originally settled by immigrants of "Yankee" stock (immigrants from New England and the western part of New York descended from the English Puritans whose ancestors settled New England in the colonial era). With the opening of a rough wagon road to the source of the Tioga River, New England settlers poured over the Allegheny Mountains. Tioga County resembled upstate New York more than it did Pennsylvania with its population primarily consisting of settlers from New England.〔The expansion of New England: the spread of New England settlement and institutions to the Mississippi River, 1620-1865 page 151-152〕 Roads were laid out, post routes established, public buildings erected and people were invited to move there. The original settlers were entirely of New England origins or were Yankees from upstate New York whose families had moved to that place from New England only one generation earlier, in the aftermath of the Revolutionary War. This resulted in Tioga County being culturally contiguous with early New England culture.
