Fort Seybert is a unique community, which dates from the fort of the same name constructed in the early 1700’s during the French and Indian War. Most of the present-day residents are descendants of the early settlers. Every year at the Treasure Mountain Festival, a county-wide heritage event, the burning of the fort by Indians in 1758 is re-enacted near the fort site. Today Fort Seybert is a quiet community with no precise geographical boundaries, home to farmers, artists, retirees, government workers, nurses, and a large proportion of schoolteachers. In times past, there were two general stores, a one-room schoolhouse, a gristmill, a blacksmith shop, a telephone switchboard, and a post office. Of these, only the post office is a recent memory, having closed several years ago. The Fairview-Bethel Methodist Church still overlooks the South Fork Valley. Fort Seybert can boast it's own Fire Department (fire house and truck), a branch of the South Fork Volunteer Fire Department. Many residents are dedicated firefighters and rescue squad volunteers, including one retired professional fireman.
