Near here stood one of three blockhouses erected by Captain James Paul's company in 1792, during the State's last troubles with the Indians. On April 17, 1792, soldiers carrying supplies from the Thomas Ryerson mill clashed with an Indian war party attacking the white settlements.

Marker is on Roy Furman Highway (Pennsylvania Route 21) 0.1 miles east of Ferrell Avenue, on the right when traveling west.
