THE DEER CREEK MILL
Internet version produced August 2016

Introduction
My father, John William Myers Jr., was born at home in Deer Creek Township, Pickaway Co., Ohio, October 24, 1907, and died April 19, 1981, in Baton Rouge, East Baton Rouge Par., Louisiana.
I found a large envelope marked "The Mill" containing photographs and articles pertaining the the Deer Creek Mill. My father had worked at the mill and always felt that he should have inherited it, as he described in "The Myers Family Farm in Ohio" - Chapter VIII.
