This house stands on or near the site of the Quaker Meeting House which was erected in 1722 and sold in 1760. Adjoining the house was a burial ground. The house which was used as a dwelling from 1760 was consumed by fire in 1844. The owners of the present house were Robert Mack, 1852?; J. Robinson, 1860; Robinson, 1891; and possibly Mrs. Howard in 1873. July 1923. View 2: February 1924. View 3: March 1925. Eugene L. Armbruster Collection
