No, I think it was either the Allsup or Wrights mill, not sure. It was
torn down years ago, and the mill dam is pretty much gone. I went
through there last year, but didn't get to fish any. I sold 40 acres on
the Stones River many years ago....wish I had of kept it now

QUIT!! Y'all are making me homesick with this discussion. I caught lotsa
fish from that beautiful old dam site in the 70s. Here's a link to a
couple of photos of it on my family web site. (Feel free to poke around
the site.)

BTW, there is an ageless and ongoing debate between locals about whether
it's "Stone", "Stones", or "Stone's" River--there are roadside marker
signs with all 3 variants!

Thanks for the pictures Guy...yep, that's the mill that I loved back as
a kid, went by it every day to school. Up the road a little is the old
Ed Kerr store, falling down now, but still a memory! Did you know any of
the Christians that lived in Halls Hill?
