The Rummel Farm at East Cavalry Field - Daniel W. Hoffman
Dan is a life-long resident of East Cavalry Field, owner of the historic
Rummel Farm. His fascination for the cavalry battle led him to assemble
stories, artifacts and his own experiences at the farm. After retiring
from 26 years with the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation it
allowed him time to share his knowledge with visitors, give presentations
