First To Rise & Last To Retire: Meet Wheatland's Domestic Workers

First To Rise & Last To Retire: Meet Wheatland's Domestic Workers

Edward Bolger. Mary Smithgall. Rosanna Gordon. These are a few of the names of the many people employed at Wheatland during James Buchanan’s lifetime. Join LancasterHistory for a special Living History tour that spotlights the people who worked to create the comfortable lifestyle that Buchanan and his family enjoyed. Tours will be available on the half hour, beginning at 10am and continuing until the last tour at 3pm. Please Note: These tours are not our regular General Admission tours and will not be Buchanan-focused. Living History Tours are an immersive and interactive experience that can incorporate historical tools, activities, and dress to give observers or participants a sense of stepping back in time.  Tickets are available for purchase online or by calling. When booking online, be sure to first select the date of September 2, followed by the time of your choice. Advance reservations are highly recommended as tours may sell out and walk-in tickets may not be available. Members receive complimentary admission, but must reserve their tickets in advance.
