Gaskins-Malany House

The house, along with a summer kitchen, barn, smoke house and corn crib are nineteenth century rural buildings, representative of early agricultural practices in southwest Ohio.

James Knox's grant #5056 was on “the waters of muddy creek” (Nine Mile), later part of Pierce Township.

In 1827, John Gaskins purchased 57 acres including the Gaskins-Malany Farmstead property.

On August 8th 1885, five years after a narrow gauge railroad connector between New Richmond and Newtown was built by the Cincinnati and Eastern Railway, a trestle collapse occurred in front of the Gaskin-Malany Farmstead (Three Forks).

[1][2][3][4] In 1947, remodeling occurred inside the farmhouse, and in 1948 an additional wing was added.
