James Buchanan – Price Undetermined, Wheatland, Lancaster, Pennsylvania

James Buchanan lived at Wheatland for 20 years. It was a luxurious haven for him when public life became too challenging. Wheatland was where the Democratic party had its headquarters to conduct the campaign for the presidency in 1856. Buchanan’s first campaign speech was given to the townsfolk who had congregated on the property’s front lawn. While president, Buchanan could only make sporadic trips to the house. However, it’s where he lived upon retiring in 1861 when his term of office had ended. He died at the house in 1868. His final place of rest is the Woodward Hill Cemetery located nearby.
