4TH LAND DISTRICT:

FLEETWOOD
Leroy Fleetwood Mill

When the railroad was laid through Wilkinson County, Station #16 was placed on Leroy Fleetwood’s property at the town of Wriley. Near this place, on Commissioners Creek, Fleetwood built a mill. I have no record of this mill until the late 1870s, when the Fleetwood place had come into the possession of Algernon S. Hartridge of Savannah. After Hartridge’s death, his real estate was put up for public sale, and the Fleetwood property was purchased by Capt. Henry K. Byington on 7 December 1880 for $101. This property consisted of fifty acres of land, adjoining other lands already owned by Capt. Byington. The state of the mill at this time is unknown, but by 1884 the mill was functioning, as demonstrated by the following newspaper article.
---------------------

Atlanta Constitution
 7 December 1884, p. 5:
Stopped by a Big Fish
From the Irwinton, Ga., Appeal.

Captain H. K. Byington, who is a prominent candidate before the people for the office of ordinary, experienced quite a remarkable incident at his mill a few days ago. The report, as given by our reliable informant, goes thus: It seems that Captain B. leaving his mill running on time, had started to his house to look after something. He had gone only a short distance from the millhouse, however, when all of a sudden the machinery stopped, "never to go again," as it were. Captain B. retraced his steps immediately and commenced an investigation as to the "why and wherefore" the mill had so unceremoniously ceased to budge. After a thorough examination he found everything intact above, and no apparent cause for the stoppage. He was satisfied of some trouble somewhere, nevertheless, and shutting down the water gate, he went below to stir things. In the water wheel which propels the mill he found a fish - yes, a ten pound trout - securely wedged between one of the buckets in such a manner as to "scotch" the wheel and bringing things to a dead halt. His troutship was at once extricated from his perilous position, the gates were hoisted, and the mill proceeded to do its bidding in its usual good manner. Remarkable to say the fish was in no wise mutilated, and furnished the Captain a splendid meal that night at supper.

---------------------

The mill described in this article is not the Byington mill on Black Creek, which Henry K. Byington had sold to his brother Mirabeau L. Byington in 1883, but is instead the old Fleetwood mill. Capt. Byington ran this mill until the end of 1885, when he sold the land and the mill to Mills J. Lord of Augusta for $1,000. The surviving deed records show the transfer of 75 acres of land “on which tract is situated the old Fleetwood house and out houses, mill house, saw mill, gin house, dwelling and out houses at mill.”

At the same time Mills J. Lord purchased the Fleetwood mill from Capt. Byington, he also contracted Marcus Oliver McMullen, a carpenter (and Capt. Byington’s nephew), to improve and refurbish the equipment over a five year period. During this time, McMullen was to build and attach two new water wheels to the existing pair of grist mills by 1 May 1886 (such that the mills would have a capacity of processing 40 to 45 bushels of grain a day), build and install a new water wheel for the cotton gin (which Lord was to provide) by 15 August 1886, build a saw mill shed and repair the existing saw mill by 1 May 1887. In exchange for these services and a modest rent, McMullen was granted the use of the grist mill and mill seat, and all of the land and buildings attached. The repairs and additions evidently went according to schedule, but the fate of the mill can be known from the following newspaper article.

---------------------

Atlanta Constitution
 2 November 1889, p. 4:
FIRES IN GEORGIA

On Tuesday night of last week, between the hours of 12 and 1 o'clock, the ginhouse known as the old Byington mill seat, in Wilkinson county, was destroyed by fire. It was the property of Mr. M. J. Lord, having been leased for five years by Mr. M. O. McMullen, two years ago, during which time he had placed thereon a good ginhouse and sawmill, all being under the same roof. The flames were under good headway and the top was falling in before it was known, and the house and everything therein was a total loss. About thirteen bales of cotton that was lying near the house were also burned, together with a number of bushels of cotton seed. The estimate of the loss is placed at about $1,500, and no insurance.

---------------------

The mill was located near Wriley, and the Fleetwood home place was itself located between the flow of Commissioners Creek to the north and the run of the Central Railroad to the south. Various deeds appear to indicate that the mills were located on Lot 156 in the Fourth District of Wilkinson. However, the lot numbers on the deed records are not clear, and modern tax maps indicate that the mills could not have been located on Lot 156. They were located  Lot 154, close to where the road from Irwinton to Wriley crosses Commissioners Creek, just below the mouth of Nelson’s Branch.

5TH LAND DISTRICT:

Bales Mill
Several documents in land records and newspapers to indicate that a mill existed on Black Creek above the Byington mill, just
about where the dam for Hodge's Lake is now. It was referred to as Bales Mills and was owned by Elijah and William Bales in the early 1850s. The mill was located on Lot 152 on District 5, and the property consisted of at least that part of Lot 152 north of Black Creek making 82 1/2 acres, a 38-acre tract in the adjacent part of Lot 167, and all of Lot 151 (part of
which now extends into Baldwin). It was a saw and grist mill. The Bales also had interest in 400 acres of adjacent pine land. They seem to have lost it in the latter half of the 1850s, probably through default on a mortgage, when the land was put up for sale by the sheriff. The public road once ran past this mill and into Baldwin County. In 1874 the road was made public, and the mill appears to be the one called Rev. A. H. Moore's mill. In 1889 the route of this road was changed such that the portion passing by the mill was closed, and the mill was then called the Pierce old mill. Submitted by  Mark Byington

BYINGTON

Byington Mill

The Byington Mill was located where Laurel Branch Church Road crosses Black Creek, on Lot 166 in the Fifth District of Wilkinson County, near the Baldwin County line. The original road ran slightly to the east around the mill, but the present road runs right through part of the original mill site. Portions of the dam can still be seen to the west of the road, the mill building having occupied the northern bank of the creek. The earliest reference I have been able to find to the Byington Mill on Black Creek is contained in an 1839 legal ad in a Milledgeville newspaper:

Georgia Journal 27 August 1839, p. 3:
Wilkinson Sheriff's Sale. Will be sold on the first Tuesday in October next, before the
courthouse door in the town of Irwinton, between the usual hours of sale,  the following property: James L. Byington and Lewis Jackson's interest in and to 600 acres of pine land in the 5th District of Wilkinson County, numbers not known, whereupon Amos Byington now lives.  On the premises is a first rate grist and saw mill.  Levied on to satisfy a fi fa in favor of Jacob Woodall, for the use of Ezra Daggett, vs. James L. Byington and Lewis Jackson. [Signed] Wm. Cooper, D. Sheriff. August 22, 1839.

Amos Fox Byington (1793-1874) and his family could not have been living on this land for very long prior to the appearance of this ad, since from 1810 until the end of 1838 they had been living in either Baldwin or Hancock, as shown by those counties’ tax records. The property described above was partly owned by Amos’ oldest son, James Lawrence Byington (1815-1869). The mill on the property might have existed before James L. Byington bought his interest in it. Or he might have built it himself, as he is known to have been a carpenter, and he did build the Amos Fox Byington home place, which used to exist on the hill directly opposite the Byington Mill on Laurel Branch Creek Road.

I have found no subsequent records of the mill or the property until 1847, when Amos Byington (who apparently had continued to occupy the land as a tenant) bought about 800 acres of land from Ezra Daggett, who had evidently secured ownership of the land in the 1839 legal action. This seems to have included the 600 acres previously owned in part by James L. Byington, plus an additional land lot. Land records show that the four land lots involved in this 1847 transaction are lots 153, 165, and 166, and part of lot 167, all in the Fifth District of Wilkinson County. Around this time Amos’ mother, Sarah, gained ownership of an adjacent lot (no. 177) and transferred ownership to her son. More specifically, Amos Byington held these one thousand acres of land as trustee for his five youngest children, who were to assume active ownership when they had established themselves (he apportioned the lands in the years immediately following the Civil War).

It is known that Amos Byington and his family ran both a saw mill and a grist mill, which were very likely contained in the same building on Black Creek, directly across the road from the Amos Fox Byington home place. Most of the land Amos owned was pine land, which he harvested for lumber to be processed in the saw mill (which is thought to have been powered by a four-paddle turbine). Even after he transferred ownership of the land to his children, Amos retained the rights to the lumber contained on the land.

Although the deed of transfer does not appear to have survived, it is very likely that Amos transferred ownership of the property containing the Byington mill to his son, Capt. Henry Kosciusko Byington, sometime before Amos’ death in 1874. However, in 1883 Henry K. Byington sold the mill and property to his younger brother Mirabeau Lamar Byington. The deed of transfer still exists, and shows that the property included part of lots 166 and 165, about 200 acres in total (Henry then ran the old Leroy Fleetwood mill on Commissioners Creek near Wriley). A few months after purchasing the mill and property, Mirabeau Byington took out a mortgage on it, and the mortgage records show that this property consisted of: “one engine and saw mill together with all the fixtures & appurtenances thereto belonging, 5 head of mules & 7 head of oxen, 2 wagons, 2 log carts, also three hundred & fifty (350) acres of land, more or less, situated, lying & being in the Fifth District of Wilkinson Co., Ga., adjoining land of McMullen on the North, Jones & Caraker on the East, Smith & Golden on the South.” The land described in this document appears to include the tract that Henry Byington sold to Mirabeau Byington, plus lands that Mirabeau had himself owned before 1883.

Mirabeau Byington maintained and operated the mill for many years, and surviving documents record his purchase of equipment for the mill. Mirabeau’s sons, James Lawrence Byington and Wright Elam Byington, helped run the mill, and it is likely that they took over most aspects of the business in the 1890s. Mirabeau sold the mill and all of his lands north of Black Creek to Joseph Youngblood, Jr. in February of 1900. He retained the lands south of Black Creek, where his house still stands, until his death in 1909. At the time of his death, Mirabeau Byington’s estate included 220 acres of land south of Black Creek, which are still owned by his descendents.

EADY
JOHN EADY SR., who emigrated from Ireland, whose Revolutionary service was certified by General Elijah Clarke, was one of the early settlers of the county, building a mill on Black Creek still known as "Eady's Mill." His son, Henry, (b. 1786-1847) was married in 1807 to Elizabeth Gay (b. 1790, daughter of Allen and Abigail (Castleberry) Gay. Henry became very wealthy, owning a great many slaves. Henry's daughter, Temperance, married Oren Davis.

DURHAM
"When Sherman's Army arrived, Mr. Brooks and his brother, John Pink, had been sent to Durham's Mill, each riding a
swift horse. Suddenly almost upon them they saw a large body of blue clad horsemen coming at a gallop. As they
turned their horses about, the leader of the Yankees commanded. "Halt! Halt!" "Lie down on your horse and lay the whip!" Mr. Brooks cried to his brother, doing the same, each expecting a volley of bullets to be fired at them. For some reason the  ursuers did not fire, evidently bent on capturing the boys' horses. Though hotly pressed they gained on the enemy. Passing the home of Henry Wood, Mr. Brooks called to the family to tell the Yankees they had gone another direction (later he learned they did). Fearing to ride home lest the enemy would overtake them, after two miles at a dead run, the boys turned and made for "Beachtree Hammock" in Big Sandy Swamp, which they could reach by crossing a marsh, and where they knew no Yankee would ever find them. All afternoon they waited here. Near night leaving their horses securely tied they walked to the edge of the swamp where Mr. Brooks climbed a tall tree to reconnoitre. No Yankees visible, the boys ventured home."

SOLOMON
At the same time the railroad was built David Solomon, who lived five miles out in the country, built and began operating the Gordon Hotel, which today is in a good state of preservation, and is being used as a first-class hotel. In 1848 Mr. Solomon built a three-story grist and flour mill on Little Commissioner Creek which he afterward sold to Mr. Galloway. It was later owned by B.I. Stevens, then J.W. Hooks who in 1910 sold it to the Pyne Tree Paper Company, where an extensive paper mill was operated until 1927, and is still intact, although not being operated at present.
