Through vintage photographs, Chester documents the community's golden years from the post-Civil War era to the 1950s.
In 1682, William Penn chose Chester as his landing place in Pennsylvania.

The town is home to the oldest public building in continuous use--the 1724 courthouse. Kimberly-Clark, formally Scott Paper Company, is among the successful local businesses today.
