Pennsylvania Heritage, v. 21, no. 2 (Spring 1995).
Summary
" A visit to Landis Valley Museum, actually a complex of more than two dozen buildings and structures, offers a glimpse into the lives of those who settled in Lancaster County, beginning in the early eighteenth century. An assemblage of workplaces of early craftspeople (such as the tin shop and the seamstress house), tidy farmhouses, a stone tavern, wagon sheds, and rustic barns, Landis Valley Museum seems as if it has always existed in this locale in Manheim Township, where early roadways converged just north of the city of Lancaster.Using this site as a museum was first conceived by two unusual individuals, brothers George D. and Henry K. Landis." [from the author]
