Almost Home Again is a beautiful home located at 84 Ben Lomond Street in Uniontown, Pennsylvania.
This is a home that is on the National Historic Register, built in 1906 by the J.P. Conn family, and is of historic value to this community.
The home is a family retreat shared by the Shimko and King families. We wish to share it with others to enjoy the ambiance of living in a past era.
The home is dedicated to provide visitors with a historic experience of the Uniontown area of a century ago. The home is operated by Mrs. Janet Shimko who is an expert on local Early American collectibles. She provides a very comfortable living experience and unbelievable home style meals when requested.
We encourage your use of the Uniontown Library "Pennsylvania Room" and the Uniontown Historic Society to seek your family roots in this area.
