1849: MILL HILL WAY BACK IN TIME

Here's Mill Hill, 1849; the year of the California gold rush. This incredible Trenton neighborhood has a splendid historical heritage. Back in the early 19th century, hotels, blacksmith shops and numerous other merchants made up a very attractive community which has succeeded even today to maintain some of the charm it had in years past.

  1. I'm looking for history of the blacksmith shop of Henry Page, located on "Lafayette St west of Warren St on the northside on the south side was a stream known as Water power and the Sanhekan Creek"

  2. Great posts! What is the "Still's (sp?) Rope Walk" across Harrison/Mercer Streets here? Any idea?
