Known as a historic area, Ellicott City was established back in 1771 by Quakers Andrew, John and Joseph Ellicott. The piece of land, known as Ellicott's Mills, was bought by the Ellicotts so they could build a grist mill, where grains are ground into flour. The area began to grow and the Ellicott brothers later expanded the area by building roads and bridges. It wasn't later until 1867 when the area was granted a city charter and renamed as Ellicott City.
