Jennerstown - Jennerstown, PA
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jennerstown,_Pennsylvania
Jennerstown was first settled in the late 1700s as a stage coach stop on the Forbes Road, one of the first roads constructed by English-speaking settlers over the Allegheny Mountains. Jennerstown was named in honor of Dr. Edward Jenner, discoverer of the smallpox vaccine, by early settlers. The town boasts several buildings about 200 years old, which is not common in the immediate area. Throughout its history, Jennerstown has served primarily as a wayside for travelers and as a farming community. Jennerstown has never been a large town, and its current population represents a peak.
Thee Olde Stagecoach B & B - Jennerstown, PA
http://www.oldestagecoachbandb.com/
Thee Olde Stagecoach B & B is a cozy, old fashion farmhouse. Built in 1752, it was an original stagecoach stop in the 1700's through the late 1800's for weary travelers. Located along the famous Lincoln Highway, the home was one the main stops to Fort Ligonier. Legend has it that George Washington might have sleep here!
Stage Coach Inn - N. Hunter Hwy Drums, PA
http://www.stagecoachonline.com/
Long before William Penn began to settle Pennsylvania, this exact site was known as “Saint Anthony’s Wilderness” Due to the narrow valleys and steep ridges, early settlers could not cultivate the landscape into farmland using the fanning techniques familiar to them in their native Europe. For this reason the area was left unsettled for many years.
There were only a few Indian trails that crossed through the area in those virgin years. One trail now known as Route 309 was known then as the Nanticoke Trail. In those days trails and roads such as these were referred to as state highways, or turnpikes.
Sand Springs was the name given to the natural spring fed pond located to the rear of where the present Stage Coach Inn now stands. This site served as an overnight stop for travelers on The Beaver Meadows Stage Coach Line. The stage coach departed Beaver Meadows making a stop in Hazelton, and then continued its journey to Wilkes-Barre. The trip from Beaver Meadows to this point along the way, “Sand Springs”, took approximately 5 hours in the early 1800’s.
In 1946, Peter and Ester Solutko built a restaurant on the site near Sand Springs and called it the Stage Coach Inn, because of the history connected to the site. In 1969 it was purchased by Russell and Helen Mucklow, who operated the Inn till 1987.
In 1988 the Stage Coach Inn was purchased by Ed and Betty Deets of Mountaintop, Pa. After extensive renovation and improvement, the new Inn was opened on February 12th, 1988. The new owners pledge to continue in this fine tradition, and add a “Touch of Class” to this landmark establishment.

http://www.visiteriepa.com/communities/harborcreek.shtml

During the railroad troubles of the 1850s, the citizens who had been arrested returned here for a welcome home party that was hosted by their friends and neighbors. The Fiddle Inn is in the heart of the village of Harborcreek. Just east and on the north side of the road is the old Dodge House, built in 1853.

The Bucksville House - Kintnersville (Bucks County), PA
http://www.bbonline.com/pa/bucksville/index.html
The Bucksville House, a registered Bucks County historical landmark, provides the visitor not only with country charm but also with over 200 years of history.
Situated on historic Durham Road, the original section of this structure was built by Nicholas Buck (circa 1795) as one of several artisans' shops which formed the genesis of the hamlet of Bucksville.
The original building was enlarged and established as a tavern and an important stage coach stop in the early 19th century. The Bucksville House was an active tavern until the 1930's and is said to have served as a speakeasy during the Prohibition era.
Early Road Developments...the Stagecoach Era - Cranberry Township, PA
http://www.twp.cranberry.pa.us/information/history/htext7.html
The first wagon road through Cranberry Township was originally an Indian trail. Known as the Venango Trail, it was a footpath used by the Indians to travel from the forks of the Ohio (now Pittsburgh) to the Indian village of Venango (now Franklin). In 1796 the footpath was widened so horses and wagons could get through. It was then called the Franklin Road because it was the road between Pittsburgh and Franklin.
At least four taverns were operating in Cranberry Township during the stagecoach era. One was on the Franklin Road, two were on the Pittsburgh-Mercer Road, and one was on the Perrysville and Zelienople Plank Road.
The taverns of the 1800s were local gathering places as well as stagecoach stops. Local farmers visited them regularly to exchange information, hear the latest news, and conduct business. The walls were posted with messages, stagecoach schedules, advertisements, legal notices, and notices of auctions and sheriff sales.

Delmont - Westmoreland County, PA
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delmont,_Pennsylvania

Major navigational roads were built through the area in the late 1700s, and what is now local Route 66 was built in 1800. The Northern Turnpike was completed in 1818, which formed the "crossroads". Delmont was a busy stagecoach stop until trains replaced stagecoaches in the 1850s. Aside from the historical genesis of the town as a toll intersection and stagecoach stop, one of Delmont's notable characteristics is that it is the meeting point of two major highways, U.S. Route 22 and State Route 66.
