Daniel Ott - Johnstown Contractor

Reader Donald Costlow sent in these pictures of his Great-Grandfather Daniel Ott standing by his home near Windber by Camp Hamilton. The camp was the football training site for Windber High School. He says there are two stone cottages Daniel built in the early 1900's and both are still standing to this day - look on the right just before you hit the camp area - they are easy to pick out.

Daniel Ott was a Johnstown contractor. During the late 1800's and the early 1900's he built many houses and churches in the Hornerstown section of Johnstown. One of them was the Trinity Lutheran Church at the corner of Pine and Hickory.

Before it was demolished a few years ago, it was known as St. James Baptist Church.
