Maclay's Mill : ウィキペディア英語版 | Maclay's Mill Maclay's Mill is the former site of a grist mill located approximately from Shippensburg, Pennsylvania along the Conodoguinet Creek. ==History== Maclay's Mill was built along the area near the Conodoguinet Creek which was first settled in 1742〔Bowling and Veit, The Diary of William Maclay, 431〕 by Charles Maclay, Sr., who had arrived in America eight years prior. The mill was built around 1786〔John G. Orr, "Early Grist Mills of Lurgan Township," Kittochtinny Historical Society Papers 1 (1904):91〕 by Charles' son John Maclay. Although there is controversy as to the date, one family narrative includes a legend that the mill race leading to John Maclay's grist mill was dug by Hessian prisoners of war during the American Revolution.〔Margaret Maclay Patterson and Jacob Crider, "History of Maclay's Mill," in The Shippensburg Historical Society: A Fifty Year Retrospective, 1945-1995 (Shippensburg, Pa.: Shippensburg Historical Society, 1995), 93〕 The mill lasted seven generations until it was dismantled in 1918〔Wescott, K. (2000, May 7). Maclay family. Retrieved from http://www.fortunecity.com/business/ellrd/1434/d62.htm#P3153〕 after being sold to Clarence Stouffer. Over its lifetime the mill was the childhood home of two United States Senators, William Maclay (politician)〔Biographical Annals of Franklin County Pennsylvania. Chicago, IL: The Genealogical Publishing Company, 1905. 147. Print.〕 and Samuel Maclay,〔Biographical Annals of Franklin County Pennsylvania. Chicago, IL: The Genealogical Publishing Company, 1905. 148. Print.〕 this also being the birthplace of the latter of the two.
