You took some amazing photos!! I can only imagine how well your photo shoot went! So much talent!
That was really awesome of your grandma to keep track and forward you all that important family history! It's cool to be connected to somebody that made a large impact around them! I also have a famous person in my family tree but famous in the "betray your own people" kind of way.... he came over with christopher columbus, but then decided to do his own thing when he got here!!
I like the other mill you included! I don't think I have ever heard of that place. I will have to get some directions from you. I love reading your posts, even if you only have 5 minutes a week to make a post, it's full of wonderful content!! You are awesome!!

Also, Klepzig mill is in the same area as Rocky Falls just outside of Winona. The mill is small and old but its history is very impressive. And the shut-ins that surround it are absolutely stunning!
Thanks Brooke! We got some really fun senior pictures with all of the beautiful scenery and a very pretty young lady :) My Grandma is a fountain of information when it comes to family history and she always tells the best stories. We have a little bit of “bad history” too, so someday I’ll have to tell the story of why my maiden name shouldn’t actually be Yates :) As always, thanks for the kind words!!! :)
Oh intriguing!! Can't wait to hear it!!
