Burnt Cabins, Pennsylvania
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Burnt Cabins is an unincorporated community in Dublin Township, Fulton County, Pennsylvania, at the foot of Tuscarora Mountain. It contains U.S. Route 522 and I-76 (Pennsylvania Turnpike).
It was so named because homes of early settlers were burned by order of the provincial government, after Indians complained against white encroachment on their land.[1] The village's development was most influenced by the construction of the Burnt Cabins Grist Mill, which still produces flour and is on the National Register of Historic Places.
It is in the Eastern Standard time zone. Elevation is 889 feet.
