In amazement of her homeâs expansion, Hannah Slaymaker called out to her mother, remarking how beautiful the bright, newly painted âwhite chimneysâ of her house were glistening in the sunlight. That was in the early 1800s, but little did she know that the name, White Chimneys, would stick over 200 years later. The White Chimneys Estate, located at 5117 Lincoln Highway in Gap, is now owned by father and daughter duo Jack and Jessica Meyer, and will host a 300th anniversary gala Saturday, July 3.
From noon to 9 p.m., the frontier-inn-turned-wedding-venue site will host a free community celebration, featuring a Civil War encampment, musicians, crafts, food, fireworks â and even an appearance from âWilliam Penn.â
