Lima

Lima was first known as the Town of Charleston before the name changed in 1808. 19th century Lima was regarded as a “vibrant and successful agricultural, commercial, and academic center,” according to local papers. The town held one of the first co-ed schools in the country when the Genesee Wesleyan Seminary opened in 1822.
