Detail of the Hotchikiss map, created in 1866 for Civil War planning. An effort was made to list areas of strategic importance: blacksmiths, mills, and bridges. There is no Shiflet mill nor Snow mill named on the map, although there are two unnamed mills in the border area. All inhabitants are NOT listed. The Ballard Mill is located along Mechums River (not shown). Click on the above image to open a new window on top of this one showing a full scale version of this detail (450k). |
