Milbank Mills Mural — 707 Webster Street

This mural depicts Chillicothe’s oldest existing business as it looked in 1910. Milbank Mills was founded in 1867 by George Milbank and is currently managed by a 4th generation Milbank. In 1904, during a visit to the St. Louis World’s Fair, John T. Milbank purchased a new type of steam engine and had it shipped to Chillicothe, where it powered the mill for the next 30 yrs.
