The Denny House: The History & Legacy of the Denny Sisters | Episode #20

In this episode of The GreeneScene Podcast, hosts Shelly Brown and Bret Moore sit down with Andy Shaner, innkeeper of The Denny House in Waynesburg, PA. What starts as a conversation about running a beloved local bed and breakfast quickly turns into a fascinating journey through Greene County history.

Andy shares how his background in serving others made the transition to innkeeping a natural fit, and he dives into the rich legacy of the Denny sisters, who were three remarkable women that helped shape Waynesburg’s cultural and educational landscape. From studying music in London and France to playing on Waynesburg College’s basketball team, these sisters were pioneers in education, music, and even the women’s suffrage movement.

You’ll also hear the story behind the home’s unique construction, the resilience of the historic carriage house, and the lasting impact of the Social Service League, including a touching personal story from Andy about how the organization once helped his own family.
