Historical NotesPurchased at sale of items from the Croghan estate "Picnic House" conducted by Kaufmann's in 1931. In the mid-1830s, William Croghan, Jr., built Picnic House, a fine Greek Revival mansion in what is now Stanton Heights. Croghan's daughter, Mary Schenley, inherited the house from her father when he passed away in 1850. Schenley's daughter auctioned off the contents of the house in 1931, and the house was demolished in 1955.
