Tablet to mark site of Waterloo pioneer home
Fitting ceremonies on May 6 will dedicate a bronze tablet by the Waterloo chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution designating the first permanent residence as a pioneer home. The dwelling at 166 Falls avenue belonged to Charles Mullan and America Mullan who arrived June 24 from Morgan squats Sr. The Mullans built a log house near the frame structure, and the property has passed through generations to Ray Davison, the oldest living grandson, who now occupies it.
