Wilkes-Barre

Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, is 185 west of New Haven, Connecticut.

Throughout the 1800s, canals and railroads were constructed to aid in the mining and transportation of coal. Hundreds of thousands of immigrants flocked to the city; they were seeking jobs in the numerous mines and collieries that sprang up throughout the region. In 1806, Wilkes-Barre Borough was formed from a segment of Wilkes-Barre Township; it was later incorporated as a city in 1871. Source: Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania
