Although I can't directly link this mill to either the Waggener or Garnett families, it almost certainly was a location very familiar to many members of both families. It is located in the town of Rapidan, Culpeper County, Virginia, and according to the sign in front, it was built in about 1774. The families of Anthony Garnett and his son Robert "Robin" Garnett lived and grew up nearby at the Horseshoe Plantation. The family of James Herbert Waggener was probably just west of the town along the Rapidan River. This photo and the one of the Horseshoe Manor were sent to me by Fran and Sam Waggener.
