    Notes 

    • Chaffin's Mill was erected by John Shope in 1816, sold to Henry Summer in 1819. The latter kept it one year when he disposed of it to Thomas Burt in 1820, who, after running it until 1823, sold out to T.S. Hayward. Mr. Hayward owned it until 1829 or 1830, when Reuben Chaffin became the owner and held it until 1863. It changed hands several times since passing through ownership of Dearborn Emory, Willis Newland and Aaron Hollinshead and finally becoming the property of Jacob Newland. It is a saw and grist mill and has a general store in connection. It is located on the southeast corner of section 10, on Pine Creek.
