Title:
1844 Grist Mill near Scranton, Pennsylvania 1

Description:
1844 Grist Mill near Clarks Summit in Milwaukie. Privately owed and recently restored by Mark Ayers. This grist mill was used for flour and other grains consumed in the mid to late 1800's and early 1900's. People would travel from the surrounding area, sometimes 10 to 20 miles which was a days trip by horse and buggy. Originally there was a race that brought water from a dam several hundred yards up stream in Gardeners Creek. Today the water is fed from an underground spring and recirculated through the building and back out on the race you see on the side of the building.

Burwell Morgan Grist Mill
During the first two weeks of my journey through the quiet town of Millwood, in the northern end of the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, I slowly became aware that I could not simply make a video about the Grist Mill, then "call it a day." The history of the mill is the history of Millwood. I would have to do the whole town, or at least as much as possible. Millwood is a story, but not only of the business partnership between Gen. Daniel Morgan and Col. Nathaniel Burwell. Hessian prisioners-of ...

My brother, Brent, visits a working mill in North Dakota on his bicycle trip across America. He mailed me these video clips on a CD, which he took with his digital camera. I can't explain the mysterious beam of light which dominates the final clip in the series. Camera glare perhaps? When Brent says he's "pushing 100 today" he means he'll be biking 100 miles.

Old Grist Mill Waterfall at Gid
This is another awesome waterfall in the county. Located less than a mile from the Gid Waterfall, this one is spring-fed. I have seen a six-foot mound of ice beneath the main flow of this waterfall during a strectch of bitterly cold weather. The water that falls from this rock-face actually joins the very creek that pours over the Goid Waterfall just a hundred yard or so from where it lands. A terrible tragedy happened to the German immigrant family that built the old mill on this site back ...
