President James Buchanan's Wheatland

Join the @BobbleheadGeorge crew for a behind the scenes look at Wheatland, the Lancaster County home of POTUS #15, James Buchanan! James Buchanan had a lot of nicknames: "10-Cent Jimmy," "Old Buck," and "Old Public Functionary." Most historians, however, just call him the worst. He may be considered 'the worst" but he had an amazing house!
We would like to send out a special thank you to Lancaster History and Periodic Presidents!

I grew up in Mercersburg where James Buchanan was born.

[@BobbleheadGeorge]

Super cool. I believe the cabin he was born in was moved to the grounds of Mercersburg Academy. Have you ever been to Buchanan's Birthplace State Park? Super cool.

[@RosiesArcade]

@@BobbleheadGeorge yes, actually we had quite a few picnics there when I was growing up 🙂

Hello Mr. Gimbi

[@johnyoung4747]

Victoria and Albert never visited America. The queen did send her son, Albert, in 1860.

[@BobbleheadGeorge]

You are correct. I should have stated that they were presented "on the first Royal Tour of America."

[@matthewhedrichjr.5445]

Did you know that James Buchanan was almost impeached?

[@debbiemclemore7126]
