Dalswinton Mill

[percy_veer]

I'm looking for any information about Dalswinton Mill pre 1900. Pictures of the grain mill in the 1800's would be great if there are any available.

I have visited it over recent years, so I have recent pictures, but would like to get any recorded info & pictures in the 1800's.

The grain miller was William Barbour from at least 1851 to 1881. He moved up the road a few hundred yards to Boghall Farm some time before 1891 until 1902.

I actually have this information and photographs of William and Jane's headstone, which I took in October 2007. Again, I really appreciate the info.

I didn't get the opportunity to see William and Janet's headstone, but I'll look out for it on my next trip to the area. Thank you.
