9th cache in a series of caches highlighting local history...

L.L. Jenison Mill

Cache is near the site of the L.L. Jenison water-powered mill, which was located at the site of Curious World Pet Shop.

[Marker that used to be out front a curious world pet shop. With the building torn down recently, the marker is not located at the Jenison Historic musem]

The L & L Jenison Mill was built in 1864. Pride of the Valley flour was in high demand and kept the mill going until 1953 when things finally ground to a halt. The L & L Jenison Mill was finally razed in 1963 after it served as an antique shop run by Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Tiffany.
