Eviction notice issued to Seneca cabin owners in five year struggle
Local cabin owners along the historic C and O Canal face a government eviction order to tear down their cabins by May 23. Julien Delphey says tearing down in one day with belongings is impossible, as some cabins date back over 20 years. The Interior Department intends to convert the area to a public picnic site, with prior court actions delaying removals. The group plans to seek an informal agreement, while several owners listed include Clinton Hamilton, Harry Stup, Charles Troxell, Ray Grimes, Donald Grimes, Joseph Gosnell, and William Fimbey.
