Armitage House

At the southern end Henry Paxson believed to have built a house in 1704. Samuel Armitage
purchased the property 200 acres from Henry Paxson in 1748.
On the Northern end John Rose purchased 200 acres in 1741. Rose is known to have established
a ferry across the Delaware prior to the Revolutionary War, probably in mid-century, when a
road went from Paxson Road and down the eastern side of the valley to the mouth of the
Cutalossa.
