| TEXT | Kerby Mills, situated on Grand River at the western end of Adelaide Street, are among the ancient landmarks of the oldtime Town of Brantford. These mills were erected by Abram Kerby about the year 1838, and have withstood all sorts of mishaps by floods and the breaking of dams, etc. There are three run of stones, and the necessary bolting and refining machinery for producing fine flour, cornmeal, buckwheat flour and chops. four hands are employed, who produce about two hundred barrels of flour per week. the power is supplied from Grand River, and is one of the oldest mill sites in Brant County. |
