The Buckley House at 322 Front Street was built in 1879 for the Woodbridge family, descendants of Marietta’s first storeowner. The Victorian house is named for oil producer Jerry Buckley, who lived there with his wife Lillie from 1900 to 1955. A legendary love story involving the Buckley House influenced rumors of a ghostly apparition haunting the property. Now a restaurant, the house has also been a bed and breakfast.
