Exciting news for the Lower Susquehanna Archaeology Chapter 28 Team. We found the foundation of the Wittmer
House, approximately built around 1832, situated between the barn and mill.
Notice the privy to the right of the home. One of our goals is to locate the privy and hopefully discover some intact artifacts.
