Jenkins Cabin

Jenkins Cabin
Frostville's Jenkins Cabin is the oldest house in North Olmsted. Dating back to around 1820, the structure was originally situated off of what is now Columbia Road near the Westlake border. The sturdy post and beam cabin was built by Benjamin Clark, a squatter, who was soon-after evicted by the land owner. The homestead was later purchased by William Jenkins around 1860, and donated to the museum by his descendents. The cabin was moved to museum grounds in 1976.
