The Darby Grain Mill was established some time during the 1870’s. The earliest record of its existence is the 1877 map of Williamsport. The mill was called Darby and Rice Mill on the map but eventually it would become only Darby Mill when it burned down in 1904. The mill dealt in grain, flour and feed and was one of many mills, warehouses and stores that sprang up around the canal. This photograph is probably from the 1890’s and shows the rail line that lead to the Cushwa Warehouse and an interesting freight boat.
