Cogan House Township, Lycoming County, Pennsylvania

Cogan House Township is a township in Lycoming County, Pennsylvania, United States. The population was 974 at the 2000 census. It is part of the Williamsport, Pennsylvania Metropolitan Statistical Area.
==History==
Cogan House Township was formed parts of Jackson and Mifflin townships on December 6, 1843. The source of Larrys Creek is in Cogan House Township, just south of the hamlet of Steam Valley. It flows west-southwest through the village of Cogan House, and then under the Cogan House Covered Bridge. The bridge is also known as the "Buckhorn Covered Bridge" (for a nearby mountain and vanished village) or the "Larrys Creek Covered Bridge" (for the creek it crosses). A petition from the citizens of Cogan House Township for a bridge to be built was filed on September 4, 1876. The 90 foot (27 m) long Burr arch truss bridge was built in 1877, rehabilitated in 1998, and is on the National Register of Historic Places.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 National Register of Historic Places - Pennsylvania (PA), Lycoming County )〕 Larrys Creek was vitally important to the economic development of Cogan House Township. During the height of the lumber era that swept through Pennsylvania in the mid-to-late 19th century, Larrys Creek was used to float logs from the hills of the township to the lumber industry in nearby Williamsport on the West Branch Susquehanna River.〔〔
The township is named for David Cogan, a pioneer who settled on Larrys Creek in 1825. Cogan was one of the few settlers in the area for many years, but wearying of his isolation, he his homestead in 1842, as did a neighbor named Carter. Cogan's and Carter's houses were used by hunters and travellers. The name Cogan's House was given to the area, hence the name, Cogan House.
