The Falley armory was built in 1770, in 1795 he manufactured 1,000 muskets at $13.40 each. The grinding wheel is believed to be part of one that burst and badley hurt Richard’s brother Samuel. Falley also operated Falleys crossroads in Huntington, was a Montgomery selectmen twice first in 1784. His life was full of adventure, and he is Hilltown History. Our group hike Saturday took us back in time as we visited three boundary stones, the old Tekoa Reservoir, an old grist mill, threshing rock, Richard Falley’s homestead and his secret armory.
