Description
The current mill built in 1886 by Sion Early, a millwright from VA, for six hundred dollars, actually replaced a worn out mill powered by a waterwheel, built n the 1790's by the Mingus family, who owned it until in the 1930's when the National Park acquired it. It was a 'custom mill' catering to each customers personal preference. Parts of this mill were replaced in 1937, again in1968, as parts that get wet then dry then wet again are subject to rot. Notice is has already been running beyond the 31 year span that required replacing rotted parts, possibly due to more modern pressure treated or better known was of preserving wood. The mill operates during the summer as a historical exhibit.
