Mingus Mill was the largest grist mill in the Smoky Mountains. While most mills at the time used wooden wheels, Mingus Mill used a steel turbine to power its mill stones. This is part of the reason why Mingus Mill became so successful. At its peak, the mill served more than 200 local families. Local residents would bring their grains to the mill on Saturdays for the miller to grind. While they waited, the residents would chat with friends and family as well as trade their goods with one another. This made Mingus Mill a center of the community for both socializing and commerce. The mill remained in the family from its construction in 1886 until they sold it to the national park in 1930. Walk behind the mill to the Enloe Cemetery (black folk).	4.9
