Trivia:
Levi Valentine had built Valentown next to land where a railroad was supposed to arrive. Unfortunately, the company that was building the railroad ran out of funds and tracks before they could reach Valentown. Eventually, Valentown was vacated and left untouched. In 1940, historian J. Sheldon Fisher, began his work to turn Valentown into the Historical Museum that it is today.
