Mingus grist mill, Great Smoky Mountains National Park. One of the most photographed structures in the park, this historic grist mill combines my interest in photography and my interest in U.S. history. I chose to sepia tone the image to create a more vintage feel as though it was taken the year it was constructed (1886) despite the long depth of field. Image currently featured in AMERICA’s National Parks and WILDLIFE Habitat group.

Glade Creek, in eastern Fayette County, is a tributary of Manns Creek, in turn a primary tributary of New River, which it joins in the New River Gorge. The lower portion of the Glade Creek is located in a gorge much like that of the New River and Manns Creek. The stream sources on the western flank of Sewell Mountain at an elevation near 3,214 feet above sea level and descends to its junction with Manns Creek at Babcock State Park. The park’s Glade Creek Gristmill is located on the stream near its mouth. Glade Creek is a well-known trout stream and kayaking stream. / Nikon D40 18-135mm W/Tripod / Featured in the “Peace , Love & Tranquility” Group Febuary 14 , 2009 . /

~ Historic War Eagle Mills ~ A fascinating and nostalgic historic site / nestled in the rolling Ozark hills of Northwest / Arkansas, War Eagle Mill is one of the many / picturesque places in the Natural State. I remember riding in the back of the truck, as my daddy took a load of corn to this mill to have it ground, and I remember all those hot pans of cornbread my momma used to cook with that huge pot of brown beans…...boy things have sure changed today!! / You can get a great bowl of beans while visiting this mill, they have a really great restaurant, but I have to say I do not think I have ever tasted a bean like my momma cooked. /

I spent nine days traveling both northern and southern West Virginia. The weather was without rain but there was plenty of morning fog and mist/haze throughout the day. Since I may never be back, I had to make the best of it. The Glade Creek Grist Mill is a replica of the original Cooper’s Mill that was located nearby. The current grist mill, completed in 1976, was assembled from parts of three other West Virginia mills. The park’s web site describes the Glade Creek Grist Mill as a living, working monument to the more than 500 mills that used to set throughout the state. Please View Larger

Three miles west of Holley Springs Georgia Featured in: Rural Around the Globe Happy Haven Barns & Old Grist Mills and Covered Bridges from Around the World Windmills, Watermills, and Ferris Wheels Winner of November 2009 Avatar Challenger – Your Country’s Best Sixes Mill is the site of one of the earliest settlements in north Georgia. The mill that stands today was rebuilt between 1878 and 1880. Perhaps as early as 1819 a group of white gold miners lived on or near the site of Sixes Mill. Although no mention exists that they were mining gold, it is very likely that they were. This was at the southern end of the gold belt that runs through Dukes Creek In 1830 federal troops reported an established community of settlers. It is possible that a mill existed on this site at this time. After the gold land lottery (1832-33) a mill was constructed to serve the needs of the local farmers. The mill survived the Civil War, and in 1878 the Marietta and North Georgia Railroad began to build a railroad through the county from Knoxville to Marietta. It was during this time that the mill was almost entirely reconstructed, including the addition of the iron mill wheel.

/ Here’s a little about the Ancaster Old Mill. Ancaster being the third oldest community in Ontario (after Kingston and Niagara-on- the-Lake), the settlement of Ancaster naturally evolved from the establishment of the flour mill. Ever since, the Ancaster Old Mill has been at the centre of more than 200 years of local history. In its own history, four mills have graced the site – each upon the foundation of the last. The first three were destroyed by fire and the existing stone flour mill was built in 1863. The building was constructed with limestone blocks taken from the actual site. Its walls are four feet thick at the base. The flour mill is one of the most substantial stone structures in the province. Built before the advent of steam or electric power, it is a testament to mid-19th-century ingenuity, architecture and sheer willpower. / Nikon D300 x Nikkor 18-200 lens

Rome, Georgia Featured in: Berry School`s Old Mill From the mill`s construction in 1930, students under the supervision of a miller used the Old Mill to produce corn meal and food stuffs for the Berry Schools. The Republic Mining and Manufacturing Company donated the iron hub, while students built the water wheel. At 42 feet in diameter, this is one of the nation`s largest overshot waterwheels. Berry`s reservoir lake supplies water to the wheel. Gravity pushes water up the stone column and over the wheel, turning it. The old Mill has been preserved as a testament to the practical training Martha Berry incorporated into her schools. [2002.6 Erected by The Georgia Historical Society and Berry College 57-3] Constructed in 1930, the Old Mill boasts an iron hub which had originally been of service at Hermitage, an early manufacturing community near the Shannon village between Rome and Calhoun, Georgia, and was a gift to Berry from The Republic Mining (bauxite) and Manufacturing Company. Henry Ford had the hub moved to Berry where the wheel was rebuilt. The wooden overshot waterwheel, considered one of the largest in the world at 42 feet in diameter, was constructed by student workers. For many years, the mill was operated by Mr. Green Berry Goodson, a white-bearded miller who ground Berry-grown corn into meal and grits. Water is piped directly from Berry’s reservoir lake to the wheel. Once primed, the force of gravity is strong enough to push the water up the stone column, and over the wheel, causing it to turn. During 1977 the wheel was completely rebuilt as a cooperative project involving Berry students, staff, alumni, and friends, and was dedicated to the memory of Mr. Gordon Keown on June 3, 1978. Mr. Keown was an alumnus of Berry, a long-time staff member and acting director of the Berry Schools from 1942-1944. During 1985, physical plant staff and student volunteers restored the mechanism and made grinding of corn meal once again possible.

I took this photo of Morningstar Mill on Oct 25, 2009 / The mill is located in St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada Nikon D80 / 1/20 at f/10 / 18-55 lens / ISO 100 / -1.3 EV / focal length 18mm taken from the Morningstar Mill website / http://www.morningstarmill.ca/mill/millhistory.htm The gristmill was built in 1872 on land owned by Robert Chappel to process wheat, oats, barley and rye. It was constructed of native stone quarried from Beaverdams Creek to form the mill pond. The mill stones (flinty burr stones) originally came to Canada from the LaFerte fields of France and were brought over as ballast on ships planning to take back logs for sale in France. In 1875, the City of St Catharines Water Works Commission purchased property at DeCew Falls and constructed dams across Beaverdams Creek, interfering with the water supply to the mill. As a consequence, in 1878, the City of St Catharines was compelled to purchase the property from Chappel. This was the beginning of a long relationship between the City and the site that is locally known as “Morningstar Mill.” The City proceeded to lease the mill to a number of millers. Ellis and Drake ran the mill for a time and their names appear on the original sign, under layers of paint. By the early 1880s the third Welland Canal had been completed and resulted in an abundance of water to power the mill. The City sold the property to Wilson Morningstar in 1883, who in turn leased it to Charles Knoll. Around 1892, the interior of the Mill was destroyed by fire but the original stone structure remained intact. Morningstar, assisted by his brother Wallace, rebuilt the mill installing new equipment acquired in Toronto from the Greey Company. Wilson Morningstar operated the mill until his death in by heart attack in1933. The water-powered turbine seized shortly thereafter and the mill was abandoned. Morningstar’s widow, Emma, sold the property in 1941 to Ontario Hydro who repaired the turbine building. In 1961 Hydro leased the property to the City of St Catharines, and the next year Mountain Mills Museum was opened with Donald Robson, Morningstar’s grandson, as the curator. Ontario Hydro declared the property surplus and the City purchased the mill site in 1989. In 1992 the volunteer group “Friends of Morningstar Mill” was established and they began to restore and then operate the mill as an operating gristmill. At the start of the restoration project, much of the machinery and stones were as Morningstar had left them in 1933. 6th place in “Autumn/Fall Colours of Canada” in the group Canada Nov 4, 2009 / Autumn/Fall Colours of Canada 3rd place in Your Best Unfeatured Photograph in the group Canada *4/day Your Best Unfeatured Photograph
