Samuel McKinney opened this hotel which by 1848 was called the White Swan Hotel by his sister, proprietress Mary Fishbaugh. "Child’s Bummer" was the name of a cannon, owned by innkeeper Russel Child, who fired a blast announcing Union troop victories during the Civil War. The Reynolds family owned this property from 1880-1950. Harry Hartman, antiques dealer and interior designer, restored the property from 1965- 1973 during the historic preservation initiatives in Marietta. James Howell, Base Commander at Olmsted Air Force Base, opened White Swan Antiques in this historic property.

A new initiative involves encouraging Austin College students I would be grateful to hear from those of you who find visual literacy returning from study abroad to create digital stories that use both words an important part of the work you do. Let me know what you would and images to convey meaningfully the core of their learning.
