A hidden slice of frontier history in Sheridan
The George Boxley Cabin, a hidden slice of frontier history.
Hidden atop Pioneer Hill in Sheridan's Veterans Park stands the George Boxley Cabin, a restored 1828 log home and the oldest structure in Adams Township, tied to an abolitionist's escape to the Indiana frontier. The park grounds are free to walk any day, and guided interior tours return in the warmer months.
