History on Knob Creek
About 0.3 miles east stood Twin Falls Grist Mill, belonging to Peter Range, an early immigrant from New Jersey. He bought this land in 1804-08 and built the 2-story & basement stone house, standing today. His limestone marker reads, “P. Range, Oct. 10, 1817, In Memory.”
Marker is on East Oakland Avenue 0.4 miles east of Bristol Highway (U.S. 11E), on the right when traveling east.
