There is some confusion about mills in the area
around the 1820s because John Herr paid taxes on
three different mills. There were both Jr. and Sr.
names used on these lists. The last operator was
Lewis Snyder who closed the mill in 1924. Today it
is part of an outdoor museum with some
patched-together mill equipment. Condition - Very
good
