Brubaker Schoolhouse (Snyder County, Pennsylvania, USA)
Brubaker Schoolhouse in eastern Snyder County, Pennsylvania, was the second meeting place for the Graybill (later Cross Roads) congregation (Lancaster Mennonite Conference) during the early 1880s. Samuel Winey was the bishop, Thomas and Solomon Graybill the ministers, and Abel Shirk and John Overholtzer the deacons. Services were held here every four weeks. This congregation in 1890 built the Susquehanna Mennonite meetinghouse in 1890, where they still worship.
