Adams Mills, Ohio

Adams Mills is a small unincorporated community in northeastern Cass Township, Muskingum County, Ohio, United States.Little more than a grocery stop in the early 20th century, this mostly residential community grew up around the Adams Brothers flouring mill in the 1830s.At some point in the 1840s George and Edward Adams purchased the land around their mill and gave it, free of charge, to their employees to build housing.With the arrival of the Ohio and Erie Canal in Adams Mills, the village became more prosperous, and a brick church was built in 1882.[citation needed] The remains of locks 28 and 29 of the Ohio and Erie Canal are located in Adams Mills on the north side of State Route 16.
