The Marker States:
"Log House Museum"
Joshua Dixon selected this site in 1805
as the center for Columbiana. The first
local post office, established at this museum
location in 1809, pioneered free mail delivery
in 1837.
The museum, an early log home in the
village, was moved here and restored in
1975 by community effort for use as a
museum and Bicentennial headquarters. The
annex was built in 1978.
The Historical Marker was sponsered by:
The Historical Society of Columbiana and Fairfield Township and The Ohio Historical Society
The museum features quilts and coverlets from the 1830s, pioneer items and Civil War artifacts. There is even bones from a Mastodon found on a local farm. Also Photographs are aloud inside the Museum.
