Old Staley house in Shepherdstown razed on Rumsey Ave
An historic dwelling on Mill street now Rumsey Avenue near the Rumsey monument grounds has been torn down. The Staley family long owned it, with wooden timbers still sound when removed, and a 1766 English penny found inside. Likely 150 to 200 years old, the house stood on a ridge above the town with a view of the river and waterfall. The property has changed hands to Mrs. C Boyer who plans a new home on the historic site.
