The Call to Ivory Mill by David T. Turnbaugh

The Call to Ivory Mill ( Grain Mill )

Matthew Wiley acquired property along Deer Creek prior to 1790 and a frame or log mill was already on the site. In 1818 the mill was in ill repair and was replaced with a stone and frame three-story building which still stands today. It was again renovated in 1890. The name Ivory Mill goes back a long way but no one knows for sure how old the name really is. The mill is in Harford County, Maryland. Five successive Wiley generations of professional millers owned and operated the mill serving the Harford County community until 1935. Grains were hauled to the mill, loaded into the hopper, ground, bagged, and sent to market.

Artistically speaking, buildings such as Ivory Mill are a joy to paint. The character they obtained over the years is extraordinary and sadly to say, in many cases most of today’s surviving mills are in their declining years. There are still a number of old mills in Maryland.
