Bring On the Evidence of Early Wooster Taverns

John A. Lawrence recounts to The Republican the town’s first tavern stood on a hill near the Fort Wayne freight house rather than near the post office or Yoder House site. Benjamin Miller, father of Mrs. Brierton, built that tavern where the historic birth occurred, while another Miller named Joseph ran a later tavern on Hast Liberty, and later moved to Backeys and Liberty before selling to Moore. Lawrence notes Benjamin Miller never kept tavern in that later block.
