Abstract:
The history of \"The Old Mill\" in Henderson County goes back nearly 140 years, to December 21, 1830, when Peter Summey took out land grant number 12901 for the property. Since 1830, the property has served as the Flat Rock grist mill, a post office, a hotel, a furniture factory, and an apartment building. In its latest role, \"The Old Mill\" serves as headquarters for a six building vacation complex which includes lakeside motel units and the Robert E. Lee III summer estate.
