Mudhouse Mansion

Mudhouse Mansion was located in Fairfield County, Ohio, United States, just south of the city of Lancaster.

In 1839 or 1852 (year uncertain), Christian and Eleanor Rugh purchased the property from Abraham Kagy and Henry Byler.

Her descendants still own the land today, and locally the home was long known as the "Hartman Place".

The same building is described as the "Rugh-Mast" house in the book Heritage of Architecture and Arts, Fairfield County, Ohio by Ruth W.

[1] Among the ghostlore: after the Civil War, a government official still kept slaves, locking them up at night.
