		Although the town of Lancaster was not even platted until the early 1850's, it had its genesis in the settlers attracted to Texas from the midwest nearly a decade earlier by the tempting advertisements of "The Texas Emigration and Land Company", better known as the Peters Colony.
		Lancaster suffered as did the rest of Texas during the collapse of military authority in the spring of 1865, and under the oppressive martial law of Reconstruction.
		Contemporary Lancaster is a charming amalgam of the changes and innovations brought by the latter half of the 20th century, and the traditions, legacies, and people of the past.
