The Carman Home

 

This home was built by the Hyde Murphy Company after the turn of the century for William Carman.  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 worked as a conductor for the Clarion River Railroad and also ran a hotel in Ridgway.

 

The home features a wrap around porch, corner fireplace and beautiful beveled and leaded glass windows.
