Notes
"This microfilm is an addendum to the Lancaster County Tax Records project of 1971 and 1977. The records on this film were donated to the Lancaster County Historical Society in January 1981. They had been kept in the basement of Conestoga View Hospital which was used by the Lancaster County government as a storage facility for records. The tax records were water damaged and subsequently discarded at an unknown point in time. A private citizen discoverd and salvaged the items from a trash heap, and donated them to the Historical Society. The items show extensive damaged [sic] by water, mold, and vermin. Most pages are frayed and sections unreadable."

Physical Description
1 v. (various pagings) : ill., folded map ; 29 cm.
Notes
Includes detailed inventory of sites and structures.
This report presents the case for the preservation of the architectural and environmental aspects of this heritage in a balanced, planned relationship with continued contemporary development. Information is offered concerning the County's resources, the dangers to historic areas, and the possibilities for action. While individual County landmarks do deserve additional attention, the primary emphasis within this report is on the overall character of Lancaster's environmental heritage and the need for its preservation. The natural beauty of our rural areas and the pervasive historic character of many of our older communities are among Lancaster County's basic assets.
This study was updated in 1985 by the Historic Preservation Trust of Lancaster County. The update's title is "Our present past: An update of Lancaster's Heritage" and can be found in our collection. The author of the update is "Historic Preservation Trust of Lancaster County".
Bibliography: p. 9-1]-9-2.
