: Ira Wilson'S Mill; Photo of the front of the Cookstown Mill in an unknown year. It was originally built by J. Spindloe in 1863 and used as a flour mill until 1929, after which it operated as a feed mill. The mill changed ownership numerous times, and was owned by Frank H. Robinson when the photo was taken. Mr. Robinson purchased the property in 1916, and later from 1918-1919 built a home on 7 George Street that would become the home to several of the subsequent mill owners. Mr. Robinson sold both properties on an unknown date to George E. Ross, who then sold again to Frank Fidler and Sandford Sutherland in 1945. The mill and nearby grain elevator were sold once more to Ira Wilson in 1949. The mill itself closed in 1973. The photo shows a tall three-storey building with an aluminum awning on one side with a 1950s era truck parked underneath it. Not shown is the nearby grain elevator, or the adjacent coal yard where forty ton loads of Reading anthracite coal were shipped for use in Cookstown and area home heating.
