Notes:

Name:
James and Arletta Bare owned forty acres on the SW corner of Bellmont, Illinois. They started an apple and cherry tree orchard and a mill to produce cider and sauces. The local farmers brought their fruit to the mill to be processed into juices, butters, and sauces.At first a horse did the grinding and squeezing by pulling the mill around in circles. This business provided a reasonable living and the horse later replaced with a steam driven engine for the grinding process, around 1890. Shortly after the turn of the century, Arletta died (1907) and James Sanford lost all interest in the mill. As a result the business ceased and the fruit trees slowly cut down to make room for farming.
