Plus, Plus the Dobbin House Tavern. Reverend Alexander Dobbin and his wife Isabella Gamble immigrated to America and settled in what is now Gettysburg. In 1774 they commenced construction of a farm and the Dobbin House, for use as their dwelling and as a Classical School, today's equivalent of a combined theological seminary and liberal arts college. The Dobbin house was reported to be a slave hideout and part of the "Underground Railroad". It was used for hiding runaway slaves on their perilous journey to freedom on the "Underground Railroad."
