The Farm is located just east of the small hamlet of Midland in southeastern Cabarrus County along the Rocky River in the western Piedmont. A small dirt road leading off State Road 1114 divides into a fork. The western fork leads to what used to be the main house and outbuildings; the main house, built in 1880, burned down due to lightening years ago. Some pictures are of this home. There is now a newer home (occupied) built near the site and is quite small and not historic. The eastern fork leads to the mill site, the tenant house and miller's house. Pastures and fields flank the dirt road, concealing the mill site. The main facade of the new, smaller house is almost concealed by trees. Some of these described structures have survived and some have fallen apart: 1. Small, newer 21st century home 800 sq feet 2. Wellhouse 19th century 3. Pumphouse Early 20th century 4. Smokehouse 19th century 5. Log Barn 19th century Impressive center passage double-crib log barn, 40' x 40', laid in half-dovetail notching.

Cropper (Tenant) House Early 20th century 12. Miller's House 19th century 13. Garmon Mill Site Early l800s-l930s The site of the Garmon Mill is several hundred feet from the fork of the dirt road on the west bank of the Rocky River, approximately 100 yards from State Road 1114. The grist mill was built in the early l800s, and was washed away by a freshet in 1908. A second mill was built and operated until the mid-1930s. At various times, in addition to grist milling, sawmilling and cotton ginning were conducted here. All that is visible today is rubble, including pieces of the turbine machinery. 14. Farm Fields and Woods The approximately 250 acre farm site is counted as one contributing resource, since it remains in exactly the same use and general appearance as it had during the period of historical significance. 15. Well Canopy Early 20th century The land is currently generating income as some of the acreage is being leased to grow crops. Rocky River borders the entire eastern side of the property. And "Muddy Creek" crosses the property. Please contact us if you would like more information. 404-993-4754
