Samuel O. Miller 1950's

This photograph was taken by my father, Samuel O. Miller, who worked at the mill from about 1928-1964. The mill house in the background was our house, half of it, the first five years of my life. The house was torn down before the mill burned and was replaced by a Sunoco Service Station which fronts on both Pa 313 and Mill St.
