This is Lancaster's Armory which eventually became known as Stahr Armory on North Queen Street in the city of Lancaster, PA |
This monument can be found in Lancaster's Buchanan Park. It honors Lancastrians who served in the 111th Ambulance Company. |
On the plaque you can see the wording used to honor the 111th Co. Directly under it is listed Charles P. Stahr's name. Click on photo to enlarge it. |
HI... I'm interested in the age of the tree that was planted behind the monument in Buchanan Park. Do you have any idea when that monument was erected? The tree was probably planted at the same time. Thank you! Len Eiserer (eiserer@aol.com)
ReplyDeleteHi Len, The plaque was dedicated in 1956 after his retirement. The tree was probably planted close to the same year which would make it close to 65 years old. Thanks for reading my stories.
