Tanners Falls is a village in Dyberry Township, Wayne County, Pennsylvania, United States, located in the Lake Region of the Poconos.

[30][31][32][33] The tannery owned by Coe F. Young ceased operations during the spring of 1887 because the area's tree bark supply had been exhausted.

[35] Repairs were made to the Tanners Falls bridge in late 1889 with lumber supplied by Coe F. Young and labor performed by C. P. Bunnell at respective costs to Wayne County of $33.79 and $10.00.

[37] In 1891, Joseph Taylor entered into a partnership with John Reifler & Sons in creating and managing a large acid works factory in Tanners Falls.

[40] New stone arch and lumber work were completed on the Tanners Fall bridge in 1893 by John Reifler, J. Schilling, and Riefler & Sons at respective costs to Wayne County of $395, $6, and $344.47.

[42] Additional stone arch work was completed again at the Tanners Fall bridge in 1898 by John D. Irwin at a cost to Wayne County of $738.62.

After its owners made their last shipment and terminated their workforce, the plant was auctioned off during a receiver's sale on May 5 of that year, along with eight thousand two hundred and fifty acres of forest land and thirty-five of the village's houses that the company had owned.

Much of the land included in the preserve was heavily wooded and home to deer, rabbits and ruffed grouse, Pennsylvania's state bird, as well as roughly twelve miles of "ideal trout streams," ponds and a marsh.

In an effort to save the town, Robert C. Perkins of Honesdale purchased the entire village from the Tanners Falls Development Company in 1941.

[66] The Kilroe Seminary of the Congregation of the Priests of the Sacred Heart was dedicated on June 18, 1955 as part of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Scranton.

Like many township roads in the state, Lupyak, Bryant, Pleasant Valley, Alden, Haines School, Kilroe, Town Hill, and Rosehill are all unpaved.
