Montgomery Hall, c.1900

View of Montgomery Hall around 1900. While the handwritten note below the image states that William Henry Allen built the house, Professor Robert Emory actually built the house in 1837. Dr. Allen was apparently the second owner of the house. The photograph appears in a scrapbook found within the J. Emory McClintock collection of personal papers.

The handwritten note, likely penned by a child or grandchild of John McClintock, reads: "House in Carlisle, Pa - Main Street, opposite Johnson [Johnston] Moore. Built by Dr. Allen. Dr. John McClintock 1853-1857."
