Joseph Dorsey House was a historic building in West Brownsville, Pennsylvania. It is designated as a historic residential landmark/farmstead by the Washington County History & Landmarks Foundation.[1]
The namesake Joseph Dorsey, a Maryland native, built the stone house c. 1787 on a large estate of 1280acres.[2]
The house no longer stands, having been destroyed by a 1993 fire.
