Title	Old Log Cabin
Subject	Architecture Daily Life Log cabins Houses
Place	Youngstown (Ohio) Mahoning County (Ohio)
Description	This log cabin is generally thought to be one of the oldest structures in Mahoning County. Originally located in the Bears Den area (about 1.5 miles southwest of the current location), the cabin was built by Cambden Cleveland around 1816. In 1862, Timothy Woodbridge (1810-1893), Youngstown's first native-born physician, purchased the cabin for $ 40.00. In 1863, Woodbridge had it dismantled, the logs moved by oxcart and reassembled at its present location. He lived and practiced there until shortly before his death. Mill Creek MetroParks purchased the cabin and property from his heirs and modernized it in 1934. The cabin measures 559 square feet and includes two rooms. The main cabin is 18' by 24' (5.49 by 7.32 m). The first image shows the outside of the cabin; the second is an interior view.
