Aka Fertility Mill
The first mill was built by Felix Binkley in 1767 across the road from the current location. It was a 40×40, 1.5 stone mill. The mill stayed in the Binkley family until 1820 when it was purchased by Jacob Charles. In 1839 it was purchased from the Charles estate by Jacob Fritz, then purchased in 1839 by Daniel Potts, 1857 by Samuel Curtis, 1877 by O. B. Landis, and in 1882 by Isaac Groff who built the new mill at the present location. It was John Bonholtzer Feed Mill in 1969. It is currently in good condition and used for storage.
The mill is located at 103 Strasburg Pike, Lancaster, PA.
