This was a small grist-mill, run by water-power, situated on Panther Creek, ten miles southwest of Owensboro. It was built by Jonathan Barnett about 1847. He ground corn in it for several years, and then sold to Ebenezer Cawhorn, who rebuilt the entire mill. It was afterward owned by Samuel Vanover, who added a saw-mill, and ran it for several years in connection with the corn mill. It was later owned by Henry Vanover, and was used only for grinding corn.
