This one's simple.  The old yishuv of EY, which read on a 3-year cycle, 
was completely destroyed by the Crusaders, and its minhagim disappeared 
When Jews resettled EY there was no existing community for them to join, 
and whose minhagim to adopt, so they brought all their minhagim from 
chu"l with them, including the 1-year cycle.
