Orrtanna is a census-designated place (CDP) in Adams County, Pennsylvania, United States. The population was 183 at the 2020 census. [3]
Orrtanna was established in 1885 around Orr Station, a stop on the Baltimore and Harrisburg Railway. [4] It originally was known as Wortzville after George Wortz, a local businessman, but was changed to Orr Station and then Orr Glen. The establishment of the post office in 1892 lead to the realization that Orr Glen was already a registered town name in Pennsylvania, so the name finally became Orrtanna in 1892, for Isaiah Orr, a large property owner in the area, and a nearby tannery. [5]
A number of businesses have existed in Orrtanna. The Orrtanna Canning Company was founded in 1913 by John S. Musselman and Ivan Z. Musselman. [5] Notably, in October 1919, approximately 30 women apple peelers walked out of the factory as part of a general movement for greater wages in canning factories in Gardners and Biglerville. [6] In 1949, the Orrtanna Canning Company was sold to Knouse Foods Cooperative. [5] The Adams County Winery opened in 1975, making it the fifth oldest operating winery in Pennsylvania [7] and Hickory Bridge Farm opened in 1977 as a bed and breakfast. [8] The post office was closed at the end of 2010 though. [9]
