page 189 Auburn: In 1834 Jeremy STONE began to improve the warer power on Young's Brook by erecting a brick mill and houses for the operatives. He died in the South before his plans were completed, but the village of Stoneville marks his business foresight. Edward DENNY of Barre, next owned the property. About 1850, Mr. A.L. ACKLEY bought him out, changing the woolen to a cloth mill.
