Description
In time, the few log houses in the little farming community of Monroeville were to give way to farmhouses made of wood frame or stone. The McGinley House, the oldest existing stone house in Monroeville, is a typical western Pennsylvania stone farmhouse of the early 1800s. It was around 1830 that John McClintock, a farmer and stonemason built the stone farmhouse. It was one of John’s daughters who married Isaac McGinley, the family that would give its name to the farmhouse, and would live there for the next hundred years. This photo shows the house as it was when modernized in the 20th c.
