description

Summary

Significance: This worker's house is among the best preserved of an early group of such houses associated with the mill and distillery businesses of the Overholt family at West Overton. Although it was lived in for a brief period in 1860-62 by the future coal and iron magnate Henry Clay Frick, its true significance lies in the ordinary workers it sheltered.
