Seems like Bob Foreman of Grayson was the only one recognizing the recent Mystery Photo. He wrote: “That old grist mill is near Clarksville. It is in bad shape. The wheel is gone. The name of the mill is Pardue or Perdue mill.” He’s right. The photo was snapped by Beverly Lougher of Lawrenceville. Gerald Cagle of Buford didn’t know where the mill was located, but he wrote: “It used to have a wheel that was powered by water. We used to take our corn in a wagon to have it ground at one of these mills. The miller kept part of the meal as a charge for grinding it.” He’s right, EEB says, for his grandfather was a miller.
