Jesse Reno's boyhood home was here where his father, Lewis, operated a hotel. He left in 1842 to enter the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, graduating in 1846 as a Second Lieutanant in the Ordnance Corps. After distinguishing himself in the Mexican War, he continued his army career with commands in Washington, D.C., the West and South. Summoned to lead a command during the Civil War, he was killed Sept. 14, 1862, in the battle of South Mountain, Maryland.HM Number | HM1F1Q |
