History
2
Clinton County was formed on June 21, 1839, out of Lycoming and Centre counties and was probably named for New York's Gov. DeWitt Clinton. It was the site of the "Tiadaghton Declaration of Independence," 1776. In the 19th century it was a lumbering center, and Lock Haven, the county seat, became a city in 1870.
