Comments: In the early 1800s, this property belonged to Elisha and Hannah (Watkins) Gardner. Elisha and later his son, James Heath Gardner, owned a mill at this location and just across the river at 300 Springs, they operated a tavern and an inn. During the Civil War, they sold the property to a man named Garvin. At some later time, it became the property of Damon and Agnes Miller and is now owned by Marshall Puckett.
