3240 Cyrus Road, House, Cyrus, Wayne County, WV
Summary
Significance: The house at 3240 Cyrus Road was built between 1892 and 1901. It may have been built as a rental residential property in anticipation of local population increase or commercial development though likely to be caused by the construction of the Kenova and Big Sandy Railroad, which opened for rail traffic in 1904. Adult residents of the house, who were predominantly renters, were employed in non-farm work, commercial and domestic. The property is considered to be eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places.
