Ernestine "Teeny" Garrott standing outside the family home and boarding house on W. B. Street next to the funeral home. The home was known to the family as "The Junction" because of its proximity to the bridge and entrance to Brunswick.

She was a daughter of Dr. John E. Garrott of Burkittsville, who along with their grandfather Dr. John D. Garrott treated wounded Union troops in field hospitals after the Battle of South Mountain.

Their grand nephew, Judge Bill Wenner told the story that the Garrott ladies once operated a store out of the ground floor of this house in the early 20th Century, which was later the home of Miss E. Virginia Wenner and her mother Edna in her later years.

Over the years, the home served as a boarding house for railroaders, as well as family members.
