We work hard to preserve your Waynesboro, PA history.
The Oller House
In 1892, as the small town of Waynesboro enjoyed an industrial boom, Joseph J. and Myrtle (Funk) Oller built a house on Main Street. Here, in the large Queen Anne style home, the Oller family raised three children.
Welty’s Mill Bridge
Welty's Mill Bridge is a Scottish style bridge built by D.S. Stoner over the Antietam Creek. Around 1798, Mr. Welty opened a mill and distillery manufacturing a brand of rye and malt whiskey famed for over a century.
Harbaugh Church
Harbaugh Church was built in 1892 in honor of Dr. Henry Harbaugh (1817-1867) a noted theologian who grew up on a farmstead near the Maryland State line south of Rouzerville. The church was largely funded through a bequest from a brother of Dr. Henry Harbaugh.
