In Dedication

These grist mill stones are presented

to the Markle Area Historical Society by

Susette Middleton Blanchard

in honor of

her late husband, Floyd Middleton.




The John J. Scotton Grist Mill was on the Rock Creek waterway, two miles south of Markle. These mill stones are of the mill that began in the 1840s. Story tellers relate that Indians as far away as Ohio, carried their grain to this mill to be ground into meal. The family of Susette Mitchell Middleton are the year 2000 owners of the land where the stones were found.
