Additional Description: The remaining foundation and early photographs of the Piatt gristmill reveal that it was expanded from its initial 1840 construction. A section of the building served as a shop for Abram Piatt and his son William who invented agricultural machinery. By the 1910's, William and his son Mac used the structure as a garage to repair cars.
