SUMMARY:Technology & the Merchant Miller
DESCRIPTION:The Web of Interdependence: Technology & the Merchant Miller examines how innovations in agriculture\, water power\, and transportation shaped rural life—and how those forces converged at one of Lancaster County’s most extraordinary surviving mills. Focusing on the Ressler family and their long stewardship of Mascot\, this talk brings to life a period when mills were not just industrial sites\, but economic engines and social hubs. \nFrom water wheels and roller milling to railroads\, banking\, and rural commerce\, the program traces how technological change rippled outward\, transforming families\, communities\, and landscapes across eastern Lancaster County.
