"the fort stockade was located on the left or south bank of fort run, about half-way between the benjamin leas house and the farm of nelson barton, and a little south of a line drawn between the two. the house of capt. croghan, who was in command of the fort, stood a little west or southwest of the fort, near a large pine-tree then, and for three-quarters of a century after, standing near where the station of the east broad top railroad now stands" (1883, 341-342).
