Now, thanks to the work of students in Timothy Trussell’s Millersville University (MU) Archaeological Field School, the history of the site is coming back to life. Students are spending the semester excavating what remains of the Galbraith Ordinary, Trussell said. “It was likely the earliest tavern in Lancaster County,” he explained. “We discovered the site through extensive historical research, and although nothing stands on the site today, we found maps and historical documents that led us to believe that the remains of the Our s Strawberrie !

The site has been extraordinarily productive, with tens of thousands of artifacts recovered to date.” Among the discoveries have
