With five buildings and the Beaver County Industrial Museum next door to one of them it takee part of a day to see all of the history of Beaver County. Industrial is covered very well

This used to be a school back in 1802 where William McGuffey of the famous McGuffy readers went to school. Apparently John Brown attended here also. The rooms are now museums with a variety of collections including artifacts from Fort McIntosh, Paleolithic Indians, mid nineteenth century furniture, and remains of the Pittsburgh and Lake Erie railroad. The building once served as a station for the railroad as well as for the underground railroad. Darlington is a small town and one does not expect to see such a fine museum in a tiny village. While here check out the McCarl Industrial and Agricultural museum as well.
