The Hyde Murphy Company built this home for William Carman after the turn of the century. William Carman was the son of Hiram Carman, who founded Carman, PA, along the Clarion River. The village is now only a ghost town located near where Portland Mills, PA is today.
William Carman was a conductor for the Clarion River Railroad and ran a hotel in Ridgway.
The home features a wrap-around porch, a corner fireplace, and beautiful beveled and leaded glass windows.
