Alexander Hamilton House. The Alexander Hamilton House is a historic home located at 45 East Main Street in Waynesboro, Franklin County, Pennsylvania. It is now operated as the Alexander Hamilton Memorial Free Library. The house and library are named for Alexander Hamilton, a local Waynesboro land speculator and wagon maker who owned the house.
One place that Jefferson and Madison supported was a city, carved from Maryland and Virginia, on the Potomac. While it was being built, they said, Philadelphia could be the capital. Alexander Hamilton opposed this, wanting the capital to be New York City, where he was from. So, Jefferson invited Hamilton and Madison to dinner to work this out. In exchange for Hamilton's support of Philadelphia/Potomac, Jefferson would support the assumption plan with Washington, and Madison, an influential representative, would support (or at least not bash) the assumption plan.
