Understand
Titusville was a small growing community throughout most the 1800s. Titusville took another twist from lumber and hired Colonel Edwin L. Drake to find the oil that is thought to be under its surface. After days and nights of hard work and cold chills, it was hit. On August 27, 1859, Edwin Drake became the first person to ever discover oil inside North America. Titusville grew larger than ever, and went from 247 residents to almost 12,000, from the poor farming community to rich houses and large mansions.
