Charles Mill
by Mike Fuchs


Introduction
   The Charles Mill is a historically significant building in Marion, dating back to the mid 1800's. After being built by Riley Marshall in 1836, the Charles Mill has been owned by many other people since. Although it was built to be a sawmill, it has consisted of many other uses.
