TheJohn Corbley Farm, also known as Slave Gallant, is an historic American home that is located inGreene Township inGreene County, Pennsylvania.
It was listed on theNational Register of Historic Places in 1984.[1]
Built circa 1796 as a two-story, five-bay, brick dwelling that sits on a stone foundation, this historic structure has a gable roof. Its builder, the Rev. John Corbly (1733–1803), was a founder of the localBaptist church and was also associated with theWhiskey Rebellion.
