Abbeville, also known as Mt. Pleasant, is a historic home located at Lancaster Township, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. The original home was built in 1755-1756, and is a two-story, stuccoed stone section measuring 20 feet by 17 feet. In 1790, a large 2 1/2-story, five bay by three bay Georgian style dwelling was built in front of the earlier section. In 1826, two side wings were added on either side of the 1790 section. Also on the property are a contributing smokehouse (c. 1825), stable (c. 1875), and carriage house (c. 1875). It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.

The Anti-Masonic Party, also known as the Anti-Masonic Movement, was the first third party in the United States.[4] It strongly opposed Freemasonry as a single-issue party and later aspired to become a major party by expanding its platform to take positions on other issues. After emerging as a political force in the late 1820s, most of the Anti-Masonic Party's members joined the Whig Party in the 1830s and the party disappeared after 1838. [Wikipedia]
