Pictures by: Jim Miller 01/01/1996 - In it's heyday, it was known for it's railcar shipments of flour to Europe. *Update: Sometime in the past few months, Mr. Rohr has sold this mill to a family who is now renovating the old mill and making it into their home! It's great someone is going to care for this wonderful old building! Dallas Townsand 02/09/2005*

Pictures by: J. D. Mast summer, 2004 - *UPDATE: J. D. Mast 08/25/04* Mr Mast sent me a more recent picture of the mill. Mr Rohr, apparant owner of the mill, somehow pursuaded the city to move the road past it forward about 100 feet, so now the mill sits back about 100 feet further from the road past the front of the mill. The mill area has all grown up in uncontrolled tree growth for the most part, is fenced off , and unaccessable to the general public. Thanks, J.D.
