The mill, probably dating from the mid-late 1800's, still has some flour milling equipment inside.

*Update: According to my great-grandpap's draft card in 1917 he was a miller, self-employed living in Pottsgrove, Pa. I'd say he and his brother were running this mill. Still don't know the brother's name, but Charles Rohm for sure was part of the history of Zachman's Flour Mill! Thank you for having this information,the list of mills and photos. Now my mom and her sisters can see where their dad lived as a boy. Gay Coleman 12/03/2011*
