built a log house, still standing, and used as a dwelling, near the Mennonite

great-grandson, Michael Musselman, over 80 years of age, now lives in the old
house where, probably, three generations of the family were born. An adjoining
tract thenowned by William Roberts, now belongs to Jacob W. Shelly. Probably

southeast corner of Milford, a mile from Trumbauersville, near the road from
