[Gristmillers] Gem of the South Mill

[WURYMURRAY at aol.com]

I have just purchased a 12" Gem of the South stone buhr grist mill made by 
the Straub Machinery Company, Cincinnatti Ohio for my museum.  It has been set 
up to run off of a Briggs engine with a v-belt pully and has some other 
modifications for parts that were probably broken.  I have run the mill and it grinds 
great.  Jeff Smith sent me a web site address for the Straub company, which 
also produced the Jewel of the South mills.  He also sent me a spout side 
picture of the mill from a Hagan Engine catalog.    However, there is no other info 
about the Gem that I can find anywhere on the internet.  Any info, including 
locations of other Gems will be appreciated.

Thanks,
Jeff Murray
