Description

Northeast corner of High and Richhill Streets, Waynesburg, Greene County, Pennsylvania. [Left-Right]: Esso Gas Station. Dr. John T. Ullom family home. It featured two doors on the front porch, one led to the residence and the other to the doctor's office. The building is still in use today as the Hook Law Offices. The Cumberland Presbyterian Church was built in 1868, when it replaced the original "Church on the Hill" that had been near Wayne Street in the Monument Park area. In 1906, the Cumberland Presbyterian and Presbyterian congregations of Waynesburg merged to form the First Presbyterian Church. The CP Church on High Street was torn down in 1941. Original, candid.
