Mt. Equity Plantation

Gov. Thos. McKean, for whom the county was named, purchased here, in 1805, a 299-acre tract. Its name derived from the fact that the purchase was made in part to give Pennsylvania equity of power in lands settled by Connecticut.

Marker is on Turtlepoint-Larabee Road (Pennsylvania Route 155) 0.2 miles south of Rock Run Road.
