Crazy Internet Junkies In Hanover PA #70

[Jeanette L]

Hanover is a borough in York County, Pennsylvania, 19 miles (31 km) southwest of York and 54 miles (87 km) north-northwest of Baltimore, Maryland. The population was 14,535 at the 2000 census. The borough is served by an 717 area code and the Zip Codes of 17331-34.

Situated in a productive agricultural region, Hanover was settled about 1730 and incorporated in 1815. In the past, its industries included the making of cigars, gloves, silks, flavine, water wheels, flour, shirts, shoes, machine-shop products, furniture, wire cloth, and ironstone grinders. The town has lent its name to a brand of canned vegetables, and a mail-order gift company based there.

Hanover is named after the German city of Hannover.

During the American Civil War, the Battle of Hanover was fought on June 30, 1863. Union cavalry under Judson Kilpatrick encountered Confederate cavalry under J.E.B. Stuart and a sharp fight ensued in the town and in farm fields to the south, particularly along Frederick Street. The inconclusive battle delayed the Confederate cavalry on their way to the Battle of Gettysburg. Three days before the battle, another detachment of Virginia cavalry had briefly occupied Hanover, collecting supplies and horses from local citizens.
Hanover is five miles (8 km) north of the Mason-Dixon line.

The original city plan was drawn-up in 1763 by Richard McAllister, proprietor of a local tavern.

Hanover is the seventh largest retail area in the state.

The Greater Hanover area has a population of about 55,000 residents. The community is made up of several areas such as Hanover Borough, Penn Township, Heidlberg Township, Manheim Township, (that's me ) West Manheim Township, Conewago Township, Berwick Township, and Union Township. All of these areas have Hanover, PA listed as their address.
