Wheatland

     After holding several positions in government, including state representative, member of both houses of Congress, United States Minister to Russia, Secretary of State, and Minister to England, Buchanan returned to Lancaster.  However, this time he went home to his new estate, Wheatland (http://bioguide.congress.gov/scripts/biodisplay.pl?index=b001005).

This estate was much different than his humble home at Stony Batter (photograph available on informational display in Buchanan State Park).
