RE: Trivia Advent Calendar - Thomas Kearney - 12-20-2015 07:33 PM Is it a place Lincoln visited? The Seward home? RE: Trivia Advent Calendar - L Verge - 12-20-2015 07:34 PM Is it farther north than Pennsylvania?

No. (Not to my knowledge, and I think this would be a well known incident.) (12-20-2015 07:37 PM)Thomas Kearney Wrote: Is it in Gettysburg?No - not in Pennsylvania. Hint #2: It's correct this was a person's home. RE: Trivia Advent Calendar - Thomas Kearney - 12-20-2015 07:42 PM Is it in Maryland? RE: Trivia Advent Calendar - L Verge - 12-20-2015 07:42 PM In Indiana or Illinois? RE: Trivia Advent Calendar - J. Beckert - 12-20-2015 07:43 PM White House Landing, Va. “White House on the Pamunkey,” residence of Gen. W.H.F. Lee, and headquarters of Gen. George B. McClellan RE: Trivia Advent Calendar - Eva Elisabeth - 12-20-2015 07:43 PM Hint 3: I have decided to post a more current photo: [attachment=2071] RE: Trivia Advent Calendar - RJNorton - 12-20-2015 07:43 PM A rear view of Stephen A. Douglas's birthplace in Brandon, Vermont? RE: Trivia Advent Calendar - Eva Elisabeth - 12-20-2015 07:44 PM Outstanding ideas, Thomas, Laurie, and Joe, but it's in neither of of those states. RE: Trivia Advent Calendar - Thomas Kearney - 12-20-2015 07:44 PM I'm going with Joe on this one!

Douglas's birthplace in Brandon, Vermont?Birthplace is a correct guess, Roger, but it's not in Vermont either. Hint #4: There's a strong symbolic hint in the last photo.

That must be it, but Eva told me it was not farther north than Pennsylvania.,, Home associated with Walt Whitman - if he's the one that wrote about lilacs blooming. RE: Trivia Advent Calendar - Thomas Kearney - 12-20-2015 07:49 PM Yes! It's the home of Walt Whitman! |
