Early Industry
On Short Mountain, 7.1 mi., Henry Hoover & John Beeson established a millstone and grindstone factory in 1806. An inscription on a bluff of the mountain, and discarded fragments of stone mark the spot.
Marker is at the intersection of West Main Street (Route 70S) and North Tatum Street, on the right when traveling west on West Main Street.
