Rockbridge Mill by Terence Russell
Rockbridge Mill Rockbridge Mill was built in 1892 as a grist mill to grind wheat and corn into flour. It was built over Spring Creek, where four springs flow in from the creek bottom. Power came from turbines set in the creek. The turbines were turned by the fast moving water. Belts and pulleys from the turbines ran the grinding machines. Rockbridge was once the county seat of Ozark County and is one of the oldest towns in the Bryant Creek watershed. There was a school, a bank, a post office and a store in the valley. Water also powered a sawmill and a cotton gin (used to separate seeds from raw cotton). Today, Rockbridge is a busy fishing resort. You can still go into the old mill building, which now houses the restaurant bar as well as a viewing area above a popular fishing spot. The grounds now include a trout hatchery, motel and a restaurant where successful anglers can have their catch prepared to order. info from: watersheds org Camera data / Canon EOS Rebel T1i / Tamron 18-275mm lens / F-stop f/6.7 / Exposure 1/125 / ISO 100 / Focus 18mm HDR data / handheld, single RAW image tone curved in Photomatrix Pro 3.2 Note on perspective / I viewed this mill from the otherside of the waterway and was convinced it was the best perspective for photographing this mill, except that at the time I took this photo, they were doing roof work (as can be seen if you look closely at the roof edges). note / I was unable to locate any rock bridge in the area.

A Look Through Baumgardner's Mill Bridge by Monte Morton
Baumgardner’s Mill Bridge crosses Pequea Creek in Martic, Pa with a 116’ Burr Arch design built in 1860. The Mill (behind bridge)...The first mill on the site was a log 3 story grist & saw mill 20’X 40’ in size built by Jacob Smith in 1774. The log mill was replaced by a new stone mill; of 38’X 40’ in size, 3 stories tall, in 1806, with Smith still operating. The mill was sold to Abraham Mylin in 1836. / Mylin enlarged the 1806 mill or started over with the new 1836 stone/frame mill that stands today at 3 stories with a 40’X 60’ footprint. The mill burned and was rebuilt from the fire that toasted 3,000 bushels of wheat. Mylin sold to Benjamin Harnish in 1857, then again in 1868 to John Good, and 1870 to Thomas Baungardner. Subsequent owners were Jacob Herr, Henry Hess, J.H. Baumgardner,& Edwin Diffenderfer who was killed by the internal waterwheel in 1905. Another name for the mill was the Edwin Diffenbauch Mill. Not sure if Diffenbauch and Diffenderfer were one and the same person? Posted to the National Register of Historic Places on December 11, 1980.
