FitzGerald's town: Lincoln in the 19th century

Abstract

FitzGerald’s town tells the story of Lincoln and its first forty years from foundation in 1862 to about 1900. It discusses early business activity, the efforts of the farming community to improve their lot, the development of infrastructure, and its impact upon the village and district. This is the story of those who lived there, of the churches they built, the organisations they supported, the games they played and the tragedies they shared.
