Summary

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE!

The Historic Farnsworth House Inn is named in honor of Brigadier General Elon John Farnsworth, who led an ill-fated charge after the failure of Pickett's charge, claiming the lives of Farnsworth and 65 of his men.

A long and violent history.

The original part of the house was built in 1810, followed by the brick structure in 1833. The house sheltered Confederate sharpshooters during the three-day conflict, one of whom it is believed to have accidentally shot 20-year-old Mary Virginia "Jennie" Wade, the only civilian who died during the battle. More than 100 bullet holes pock the walls. Following the battle, the house served as a hospital.

The Lincoln procession passed the Farnsworth House on November 19, 1863, on the way to the National Cemetery, where he delivered the famous Gettysburg Address. Harvey Sweney, the house owner during the battle, wrote a letter to his brother, penning the most insightful and powerful account ever written on the subject.

Today, the Bed & Breakfast guests enjoy lovely Victorian rooms and, at times... Ghosts

Today we discuss the ghosts of The Historic Farnsworth House Inn.
