Additional Description: Sign on the cabin reads, “In 1850, 28 year old Abraham Phillips built this two-story log cabin near the town of Kerr about 5 miles from here. The cabin has half-dovetail corner notches. The upper logs are pine and the lower logs are oak and other hardwoods.” “Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Issacs owned the cabin in the 1970s and sold it to Bob Evans who donated it to the Farm.” “In 1974-75 this cabin became the first log building reconstructed at the previous location of the Adamsville Village near Raccoon Creek.”
