This Georgian mansion was built in 1825 by John Y. Hill. It is known as “Hill House” and as “Aunt Beck Hill’s Boarding House.” Jenny Lind sang here in 1851 and General George Armstrong Custer and wife boarded here, 1871-73. Doctors William Allen and Robert Brown Pusey gave the house to Elizabethtown in 1923 for a Community House and library.
