Exploring the Stover-Myers Grist Mill | Built in 1800

Hi Jenn? An interesting find. I appreciate the detailed look at the mill. Found myself transported in time wondering what was going on there 200+ yrs ago. And I agree the scenery there is gorgeous. Thanks!

Hi Steve, I just happened to drive by this and just had to get of my car and check it out. Yeah, I'm the same way...I enjoy imaging lives that once were. Thanks for watching!

My husband and I stumbled upon this site a few years ago. It looks a little worse for wear but so cool. I agree; upper Bucks County is gorgeous!

Everywhere you turn in Upper Bucks County there's something wonderful to check out. I think I will be exploring the area a lot in the next few months. Thanks for watching!

thank you - while my name is not as you see it, my ancestors were one of the Myers - mustered into the Washington army for the wagon and horses - of course 'that' is prior to 1800. Stover was 'Americanized' Stauffer. My great-grandfather was B.F. Myers - of northern Bucks County - the B.F. stood for Benjamin Franklin (he was bald just like Mr. Franklin! This from Wiki: 'In 1784, Jacob Stover purchased the 153 acre parcel of land and Grist mill from John and Henry Clymer. Jacob enlarged the mill in 1800 and operated it continuously until 1955. The mill was improved again by him in 1834. It used a millstone to grind flour and feed for livestock using power from a waterwheel.'
