Henry Ford Connection<\/h3><\/div>
In 1935, Henry Ford began work on the Old Mill. He stripped the building to its original timber frame. It was rebuilt along the old lines, and timber for the mill foundation was cut from adjacent land and hand-hewed.\u00a0 He saved the mill!<\/div> <\/div> <\/div> [\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″ offset=”vc_col-lg-3 vc_col-md-3″ css=”.vc_custom_1495112570142{padding-bottom: 50px !important;}”]
