Description

The Susquehanna State Park is a peaceful and quiet journey back in time. The Susquehanna River, named for the Susquehannock Indian tribe, is the Chesapeake Bay’s main tributary river that stretches from Upstate New York to Havre de Grace.

The Rocky Run Grist Mill still stands and operates during certain times of the year.

On the hill overlooking the mill stands Carter-Archer Mansion, a majestic 14-room stone structure built in 1804 by John Carter, a partner of John Stump in the Rock Run Mill. This grand old mansion stands proudly as a monument to days long ago . . . and a reminder of a time that saw our country torn apart. When Carter died a year later the house passed to the Stumps' daughter Ann and her husband, Dr. John Archer, Jr. One of the Archer's children was James J. Archer, a brigadier general in the Confederate Army. Several rooms are restored and furnished with period antiques.

Thank you so much for looking at my images. I appreciate that very much.

I am very concerned with our environment and have decided to donate any money I make from any sales of this image to the ENVIRONMENTAL DEFENSE FUND.....because the Earth needs a good lawyer! We all need to speak up and support efforts to protect our environment. We will not get a second chance!
