MessageWOW, very impressed with the website and the research. I have been able to trace my family back to William McDaniel born 1728 in Halifax, VA but have not been able to find any additional information on his ancestors. I'm very interested in finding out any additional information that you might have and as well as coming out to Pittsylvania area with my father James W. McDaniel and looking at all of the artifacts that you all have recovered and preserved. I would just like to thank everybody involved in this preservation of history. Please let me know what me or my family could do to help enable this success y'all have built.

MessageNice find! I ran across your site searching "pittsylvania county grist mills". The reason for my search was,I heard there used to be an old mill on part of my property i just bought.Reading on i discovered "Herman Meltons" books on the subject and wonder if he mentions this one at all. Supposedly a Mr. Watts operated the mill last. "Melton" mentioned a babtist preacher named "Samuel Harris" ithink ,,who owned a plantation or two in this area on "Falls Creek". Thats where i am ,actually the first house on the creek as it develops just north of me past the :old rock quarry: off 360 or Old Richmond Road, SR 723,Old Quarry rd. and dumps into The DAN RIVER at the city farm area. I am interested in restoring the dam for hydroelectric for my home and for asthetics since i love waterwheels. PS Im in the round house and you can see it on the satelite pictures.

MessageWonderful web sight, saw it in the Pittsylvania Packet, am impressed by the wonderful work you have done. Perfect pictures on your work and also on the other sights you have for us to see. I have ancestors that lived on Mill Creek and Whitehorn Creek, northeast of Chatham,Va. John & Mildred Payne, 1762.
Keep up the wonderful work you have done, any of the history that can be saved is worth the time spent, with help from family and friends.
Hope to see this some day, will enjoy the web sight again .Thanks!
