Additional Description: Sign on cabin reads, “Sometime between 1800 and 1830 the Stormont family built this cabin near Johns Creek about 14 miles from the Farm. The notching is half dovetail. Of note are the original second floor joists and the ‘bowed’ beam above the door.” “Samuel Stormont owned the cabin as late as 1874. Adam Hieman (1837-1928) was the next owner of the cabin.” “Bob Evans bought the cabin in 1971 and moved it here to the Farm.”
