Eisenhower Farm Deeded to U S Historic Site Near Gettysburg
Former president Dwight D. Eisenhower deeded his 235 acre Gettysburg area farm to the U S government on November 27, 1967. The Interior Department will place the property under National Park Service control as a historic site likely to become a tourist draw. Eisenhower, who bought the farm in 1950 for 44000 dollars, had concessive life rights for himself and his wife Mamie after his death. He died after a heart attack during a 1968 vacation in California and subsequent hospitalization at Walter Reed. Mrs. Eisenhower has not stated plans for the property.
