The 40"X 50' 2.5 story plus attic, frame mill was built on one story of stone dating to c. 1870- c. 1890. The mill did agood trade, seeing as how it was less than a mile from the Dreibelbis Mill (Pa-06-30-01). The mill ran into financial difficulties in the 1950's and went bankrupt. All the buildings were sold separately to various people. The present owner of the surviving buildings of the mill community bought one of the houses initially, then bought back, one at a time, the other buildings over the past 50 years.

The mill owner's house today is the same house seen in the period photo with some changes: the bay window on the left side, the front porch extended across the entire front, and perhaps the rear porch. The mill would have been on the extreme right, off the picture beyond the evergreen trees, which were very small in the period photo.

This barn, present during the mills operation, is situated behind and to the left of the mill owner's house in the picture above. Used perhaps to store hay and board horses who's owners may have come a distance to the mill to conduct milling business.

The warehouse, no doubt, was used to store seed and flour for sale to the farmers. It is not known if the mill was a flour mill, but it most certainly supplied seed, flour and specialty feeds. The mill was a feed mill into the early to middle of the 20th cen., probably sat idle for a few years and was torn down in 1958. The warehouse was situated to the right of the mill as seen in the photo, about even with the rear half of the mill.

The miller's house, the dwelling of the mill operator, was also to the right of the mill across the street beside the warehouse and encountered first if one walked down the street past the owner's house toward the mill in the photo. *Special thanks go to the present owner of the mill buildings for his permission to use the period photo of the mill and for being a source of information to the photographer, Bob Kinsey*
