William and Catherine Buck (802 Forest) may have built this house by 1891 for William's parents, Annanias and Catherine Buck. Annanias was retired from the Steel Skein Works. In 1898, Rev. Warren E. Shirey, pastor of the Westminster Church, had moved into the Gabled-ell house and lived there until 1903. George Murphy purchased the house in 1920 and lived there into the 1950s.
