William H. Pyles built The Little Log Cabin on Pedlar Run in Clay District, Monongalia County, in 1834. He and his wife Catherine sold the property to Hosea Wade in 1840. Hosea and his wife Clarissa sold the property to John Wildman in 1841. In 1878 John and his wife Mary sold the property to their son Jarrett Wildman. When Jarrett died in 1898, his children inherited the house and land. With Simon L. Wildman acting as Trustee, the heirs of Jarrett Wildman sold the property to Norman Cordray in 1917. Cordray donated the cabin to the 4-H Camp in 1945.
