In those early days most of those living in Uic Millcreek area were originally from Pennthe Neffs, sylvania Kellers, Riders, Russell, to name a few. John Neff brought with him machinery for a grist mill which he built near the present location of Evcrgrcc and Oakwood. One of its two great stone burrs has been preserved and now stands in front of the Millcreek First Ward, 2702 Evergreen Avc.
