Some believe it is the oldest cabin in Elizabethtown.
Hurricane Island is directly across from the hill.
There was a river pirate named James Wilson who operated in the area at that time, with outlaw James Ford. The pirates would tell the families the stretch of river was too treacherous and they would need a pilot on board to navigate them safely. Blackman said with the exception of travelers, there would have been few living in the area not involved with an outlaw gang. The cabin has been altered from its original state. There is a 6-foot door.
