The population was 5,951 as of the 2010 census.[2] History{{main article|History of Plymouth, Pennsylvania|Coal Mining in Plymouth, Pennsylvania}}Plymouth was first settled in 1769 by the Susquehanna Company of Connecticut. It was originally part of Plymouth Township. The Pennamite-Yankee Wars were fought in the surrounding area. Plymouth is situated in the rich hard coal fields of Pennsylvania. Coal was first shipped in 1807. Plymouth was incorporated as a borough in 1866. Elijah C. Wadhams served as the first mayor; he held office until 1869. In the past, the chief products of its industrial establishments included mining drilling machines, miners' squibs, silk hosiery, and lumber products. In 1910, its population peaked at 16,996. Architecture{{main article|Architecture of Plymouth, Pennsylvania}}At the beginning of the 19th century, Plymouth's primary industry was agriculture, and many of its residents were the descendants of the Connecticut Yankees (who first settled the town). Its early architecture resembled that of a small New England village. However, vast anthracite coal beds lay below the surface at various depths, and by the 1850s, coal mining was the town's primary occupation, attracting a more diverse population. After the arrival of the railroad (in 1857), the town's architecture became more typical of a growing industrial center.
