Mingo Creek Presbyterian Church and Churchyard

Mingo Creek Presbyterian Church and Churchyard is a church and historic location in Washington County, Pennsylvania. It is located at the junction of Pennsylvania Route 88 and Mingo Church Road in Union Township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, near Courtney, Pennsylvania. It is a member of the Washington Presbytery. The original log Presbyterian meetinghouse was built in 1793. The Mingo Creek Society, a group of dissidents founded in February 1794 that became involved in protest against the federal whiskey excise tax, met there. It would serve as a focal point in the development of the Whiskey Rebellion, even becoming the site of militia musters in the fight against federal forces. Some militia members are buried on the grounds, including Major James McFarlane, revolutionary war veteran, mortally wounded at the July 1794 battle of Bower Hill during the climax of the resistance of the Whiskey Rebellion at the residence of John Neville . In the early years, the church was served by circuit-riding preachers who ministered to the early settlers of the era. Many of the service were held underneath a young oak tree. In 1990, that tree had grown large, but had become infested by ants. In response, the church members removed most of the tree, but left the base of the trunk, which they then carved into a statue of a circuit-riding preacher. "Reverend Stump," as it was called. The stump still stands, but is still plagued by carpenter ants. In 1994, the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission installed a historical marker noting the historic importance of the location. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1992. It is designated as a historic public landmark by the Washington County History & Landmarks Foundation. The current church, built in 1831, is a one and a half-story brick building, largely unadorned. It was renovated in 1904, with multi-paned stained glass replacing older windows in 1936. A manse (1924) and a two-story education building (1958) are also on the site but are not part of the national register boundary. The church yard/cemetery, on a high hill to the southwest of the church, contains dated tombstones from 1790. References

Modern Tool Company

Modern Tool Company, also known as the People's Market House, is a historic building located at Erie, Erie County, Pennsylvania. It is a large eclectic U-shaped, brick building built in stages between 1895 and 1928. The building measures 218 feet by 330 feet. The earliest section was built in 1895, as the People's Market House. It is 3+1⁄2 stories and has a large central pavilion with flanking two-story wings and a gable roof. The State Street side was built in five sections between 1916 and 1924. The northern block was added about 1928. It features Palladian windows and a corner turret. The original building housed a public market until 1902, after which it was leased to the Modern Tool Company, a machine tool manufacturer. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1987. Payne-Modern automobile Calvin N. Payne founded Modern Tool Company in 1898. From 1904 he and his son Frank experimented with automobiles . Gilbert Loomis, who previously ran the Loomis Auto Car Company, joined Modern Tool in development of a car in 1906. However, he quickly left the company and joined the Speedwell Motor Car Company . In 1907 the production of automobiles began with the marque name of Payne-Modern. The Payne-Modern was offered as a four-cylinder or a six-cylinder; both engines were air-cooled overhead valve units built in a "V" configuration. The transmission was patented with four speeds forward and reverse. Suspension was novel with semi-elliptic springs placed at a 15-degree angle with the outboard ends above the frame, the inside ends below. There were no outside hand levers on the Payne-Modern, the gearshift lever was located on the steering wheel. Final drive was by shaft. With runabout or touring bodies, the four-cylinder was priced at $2.200 (equivalent to $76,018 in 2025) while the six-cylinder was priced at $4,000, equivalent to $138,214 in 2025. Likely the complexity of the automobiles hampered its production and the Payne-Modern was discontinued in 1908. It is unknown if any cars are currently extant. References

Monongahela City Bridge

The Monongahela City Bridge, officially known as the General Carl E. Vuono Bridge, spans the Monongahela River from the City of Monongahela in Washington County, Pennsylvania to Forward Township in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. It was built to replace a bridge that was situated one-quarter of a mile north of the current bridge's location at First and Main Streets. History and notable features Opened to traffic in 1990, this bridge marks the end of Monongahela's Main Street and the separation of Pennsylvania Route 136 from Pennsylvania Route 88. This is the fourth bridge to cross this segment of the river. The 1836 Williamsport Bridge was a wooden structure that served Monongahela while the town was operating under its original name.

Montgomery Cemetery

Montgomery Cemetery is a historic cemetery located near the Schuylkill River on Hartranft Avenue and along Jackson Street in West Norriton Township, Pennsylvania, immediately adjacent to and southwest of the Municipality of Norristown. Founded in the late 1840s, the cemetery is the final resting place of several high-ranking Civil War officers and former governors of Pennsylvania. The cemetery is adjacent to Riverside Cemetery, which was founded a half century later, during the fin de siècle era of the 19th century. The cemetery is currently administered by the Historical Society of Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, located in Norristown, Pennsylvania. Origins and history The Montgomery Cemetery Company, which originally owned and maintained the cemetery, was incorporated by act of the Pennsylvania General Assembly on April 10, 1848. The initial members of the cemetery company were William Hamil, John R. Cooken, Adam Slemmer, Henry Freedley, James Wells, Abraham Markley, John Freedley, and Joseph Fornance, with the first five being trustees. The 29.7 acres (120,000 m2) of land for the cemetery had been sold to the company on March 31, 1848, by one of the trustees, William Hamil, and his wife Willimina. The first burials in the cemetery ensued shortly thereafter. The cemetery was originally a part of Norriton Township when the cemetery company was incorporated. When the then-Borough of Norristown annexed the land immediately to the northeast of the cemetery in 1853, the cemetery's land, including the road leading to the cemetery (now Hartranft Avenue), was specifically omitted from the annexation. However, the cemetery company's land along and beside Hartranft Avenue, not including the cemetery itself, became a part of the then-Borough of Norristown on January 18, 1909. Less than two months later, the cemetery itself became a part of West Norriton Township after Norriton Township was divided on March 9, 1909. Notable interments Joseph Fornance (1804–1852), member of the U.S. House of Representatives John Freedley (1793–1851), member of the U.S. House of Representatives Winfield Scott Hancock (1824–1886), General during the American Civil War and the Democratic nominee for President of the United States in 1880 John F.
