Many of the early settlers were Scots-Irish and Pennsylvania Dutch. Captain Barnabas Hughes, one of the early settlers, acquired land and laid out a town in 1753. He decided to name it after his wife Elizabeth. Agriculture was the main way of life, until the early 1900’s when Klein Chocolate Company and several shoe factories opened. In 1899, Elizabethtown College was established and in 1911; the Masonic Homes followed. In a 2000 census, the population was 11,887.
