Remodeled Log Cabin Near Square Preserved as Fee Property
In the city center lies an old log cabin once reputed as the first tavern. Located at South Beaver and Market Way, it was bought by Thomas Fee around 1864 from the DuShane family and later weatherboarded. Original logs remain, chimney stones repurposed, and a hot air system revealed the timber’s age. The property, now owned by Mrs. Bridget Murphy of Lorain, Ohio, preserves a century or more of local history.
