Murrysville’s Staymates House, built between 1785 and 1790 along present-day Round Top Road, played a unique role in
Murrysville's history. The
2-story log cabin may have served as a rest stop for early settlers traveling
west, and it has been referred to as a 'blockhouse', used in defense
against Indian attacks in those days. _____________________________________________________ Latest MHPS NewsMurrysville Historic Preservation Society seeks historic landmark designation for Murrysville's Haymaker gas well site. |
