(7-01) The home of John and
Martha Scott and Martha's sister Mary McAllister on Chambersburg Street,
directly across from the Lutheran Church. Mary volunteered as a nurse at
the church, which was being used as a hospital |
(2-07) The
George George House at 237 Steinwehr Avenue. Similarities of stone
construction with the nearby Dobbin house suggest that this one-story
structure was built before 1800. In 1863 it was owned by Captain John
Myers, whose extant house on Baltimore Street later became the National
Soldiers Orphans Homestead. George George was the tenant living here
during the time of the battle. The house is thought to be the building
where the body of slain Union General John Reynolds was taken around noon
on July 1. It is now the home of Servant's Old Tyme Photo's where you can
have your picture taken in period costume |
