The Tavern houses a museum of early Ohio artifacts. It is a neat, small tour worth a look.

I have to return as they were not open.

@@thelostsoulwanderer my coal supplier is an amateur archeologist. He found the William Barbee house footings and excavated the surroundings. He then donated the artifacts to Overfield and they sit in the centerpiece of the displays. Super interesting stuff.
