List of places in the United States named after places in England

A large number of places in the U.S were named after places in England as a result of English settlers and explorers. These are mainly concentrated in the 13 eastern states which used to be the Thirteen Colonies in the British Empire, especially in the six known collectively as New England.
Some names were carried over directly and are found throughout the country (such as Manchester, Birmingham and Rochester). Others carry the prefix "New"; for example, the largest city in the US, New York, was named after York because King Charles II gave the land to his brother, James, the Duke of York (later James II).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The New Jersey Colony )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=KINGSTON Discover 300 Years of New York History DUTCH COLONIES )〕 Some places, such as Hartford, Connecticut, bear an archaic spelling of an English place (in this case Hertford).
The American capital Washington, D.C. is named after the first U.S. President George Washington, whose surname was due to his family holding land in Washington, County Durham.
