McKee Mill




This photo was submitted in 1999 by Penny Cooper Bailey who stated: "Back of picture says: This mill was owned and operated by Grant McKee in the early 1900's. Situated about halfway between the Viola Cemetery and the little village of Viola. At that time the dirt road ran East and West in front of the mill. Directly behind the mill was a hole water which supplied the mill. It is now a beautiful little lake. McKee mill ground flour, corn meal and grain for poultry and live stock. Also standing are Grant Mckee and two of his sons, Clarence (left) and Earl (center.) Note: inscription was written by Bernice Willyard Garland (Mrs. Joe Garland) she was the niece of Grant McKee."
