@Greg Nagy posted:Lovely little spot with a whiskey rebellion era tavern that unfortunately was heavily damaged in a fire about a decade ago.
Only trains I knew of THROUGH the town would have been stagecoach wagon trains on the National Road, but overlooked Cokeburg, PA to the north AND Marianna, PA to the south. Both coal/coke patches on the PRR Ellsworth Branch.
Greg, Yes indeed on the Whisky Rebellion. I did not know about the fire.
Thank you for the scoop on the stagecoaches on the National Road! They had a route from Pittsburgh to Erie that went right through here in Butler. There is so much great history out there!
