Pedlar Mills is over near the Elon area as indicated, but the Pedlar district is near the Vesuvius/Oronoco area on Long Mountain (Rt. 60 W headed to Buena Vista). The Pedlar River is located in that area as well -- used to be a CCC (civilian conservation corps) camp in the area where people would camp out during the fishing seasons. Take care, Debbie
