The resulting 1748 survey by Thomas Greene referred to this new territory as Gooney Run Manor, giving homage to Lord Fairfaxs favorite hunting dog, Gooney, who had died on a hunting trip several years earlier. Heavy settlement of the manor began about 1770, and continued through the end of the 18th century and into the 19th. Fairfax would not sell his land, so the settler leased 200 and 300 acre lots of ungranted waste land, built a cabin with a stone or brick chimney, as the leases specified, and planted 100 fruit trees (perhaps what the cabin was built for). Ceiling trim work in dining room is composed of wood planks and posts from original flooring. The posts were used to brace up the floor from the ground. Saltillo tile in dining room, kitchen and bathroom, with floor heat. Antique box locks on the doors. Old cabin electric wiring was replaced when new addition was added in 1999.
