Brown’s Mill School was built in 1836, two years after the Pennsylvania Legislature passed the Free School Act. In 1921 the school closed and stood empty, deteriorating until 1934 when a Memorial Association was formed to restore the building. The Brown’s Mill School was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973.

The Brown’s Mill Cemetery is located directly south of the Brown’s Mill schoolhouse, near Kauffman Station. This is one of the oldest cemeteries in Antrim Township, with legible markers dating back to the 1770s. The cemetery is a burial ground for many Revolutionary Soldiers from Franklin County. During a GPR search of the cemetery in May of 2022 unmarked graves have been identified.Franklin County Historical Society is in the process of renovating and improving the appearance of the cemetery.

Tours of both the school house and cemetery can be conducted with 2 weeks prior notice via Franklin County Historical Society.
