Samuel Detwiler lived in this house in 1905 while working as the town liveryman. After the horse and buggy declined, he and his son Frank began a dairy farm. Their barn stood where the Post Office now stands, and each day they herded their cows down Main St. to a pasture on the other side of the railroad tracks. The dairy flourished until 1949, and the house was renovated in 1985 and again in 2013.
