Hebron Milling Co.
The mill is located at the northeast corner of Basin St. and Main Street/US 40 in the town of Hebron.
The Hebron Milling Co. building was built in 1880 by Mr. William Bebout, where the National Trail/US 40 and the Ohio Canal crossed in the village of Hebron.
The mill sat on the edge of the "turning basin", where canal boats docked to load and unload. Bebout operated the mill as a flour and saw mill.
He took young Davie Geiger in as a partner in 1891. Geiger was with the mill over 50 years.
In 1924, Albert Voorhees, Geigers son-in-law, came into the business and became the owner when Mr. Geiger died in 1943. At that time, Ralph Voorhees, brother of Bert, came into the business.
These two men operated the mill for many years. In 1975, the ownership passed to Nancy Voorhees Smith and the operators of the mill were Don and Eugene Gutridge.
In 2003 the building was purchased by Brezina Design and Construction Services, renovating the building for their offices. GPS: 82' 29.19W, 39' 57.42N
