Pennsylvania Golf Courses : Lawrence County
Created March 20, 1849, from parts of Beaver and Mercer Counties and named for Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry’s first flagship, the U.S. Brig Lawrence, which had been named for Captain James Lawrence, a naval hero. New Castle, the county seat, was laid out in 1802, incorporated as a borough on March 25, 1825, and chartered as a city on February 25, 1869. It is not certain whether it was named for Newcastle, England, or New Castle, Delaware. This area was formally acquired from Native Americans by the 1784 Treaty of Fort Stanwix, the (Last Purchase), and migrants from Allegheny County began to settle in 1793. Newcastle quickly grew to be an industrial center because the county had limestone quarries, iron ore, and coal. Its stone blast furnaces for making iron, started in 1838, were located in both Beaver and Mercer Counties, and the county was created to eliminate that confusing situation. Canals arrived in the 1830s and the Pennsylvania Railroad in 1850. Connection with Youngstown, Ohio was very important. The 1890s were the (Golden Age of Industry), as Lawrence became the world’s leader in tin plating. Lawrence also produced hardware, paper, pottery, cement, and linseed oil. There was some oil production. The industrial complex brought vast numbers of southern and eastern Europeans, beginning in 1875. The population peaked at 113,000 in 1960, but deindustrialization became pronounced in the 1970s. As in Berks County, there was always farming outside the factory areas. Today, 42 percent of the county is farmland. It ranks about midway in value of farm products among the sixty-seven counties. Let’s see the Pennsylvania golf courses in Lawrence County.

Pennsylvania Golf Courses Comments:
This level course has a pair of lakes that come into play on two holes. The greens are large and flat, so sinking a forty-foot putt is not impossible here. Trees line all the fairways, so a straight tee shot is important if you intend to score low. Hole 9, a 295-yard, par 4, has a stream running in front of the green, but the short yardage still provides players with a decent shot at finishing with a birdie.
