Het ligt in de vallei van de westkust van de rivier de Susquehanna tussen de heuvels van de . Mede door de Susquehanna kwamen veel houthakkers naar de streek, er werden kleine boerderijen gebouwd en de stad is ontstaan in 1893. Er werd ontdekt dat er een mijn onder Spanglar zat die ze wilden gaat uitgraven. Die mijnbouwbedrijven hadden veel werknemers nodig, velen van hen kwamen uit Groot-BrittanniĆ« en Oost-Europa. Er werden spoorwegen gebouwd om de kolen te vervoeren en de stad bloeide van deze economische transport. Het gebied werd eerst bestuurd door Europeanen, vroeg in de 19e eeuw. (nl)
