BUFFALO CREEK FARM was used for cattle raising experiments by Dr. Francis Lillie, and also supplied much food for Childerley and milk for the Wheeling area and north shore suburbs. It was at the foot of what is now St. Armand Lane.
BARN BURNING marked the end of Buffalo Creek Farm as it made way for suburban development.
FOUR TEAMS hauled this old log cabin across the creek to Childerley. It had been used as a pig pen on the south farm, but was renovated to serve as a chapel until a new one was built. It became a playhouse for young children, and finally had to be torn down.
