Mitchell-Weeks House

A reproduction of a typical Potomac Valley farmhouse stands on the site of a one and a half story log house built here circa 1789 by Benjamin Mitchell, with a sloping front roof extending over a porch that in time became a community landmark. Ownership passed in 1835 to James Wrenn, who married Mitchell's granddaughter, and his eight unmarried daughters lived here through approximately 1940. After 1952, Charles and Edith Weeks and later owners made many renovations and structural changes, while the stone chimneys and the log siding on the front porch come from the original house.
