Hans Wagner, a hunter, trapper and miller, and his teenage son built this cabin in 1752, but left for new land on the Yadkin River when the Moravians purchased the Wachovia Tract. On November 17, 1753, the first 15 Brothers found the abandoned cabin and lived there until 1755, when the Brothers' House was completed. Refugees used the cabin during the French and Indian Was. The village of Bethabara grew up around it.
