You are the Don Yelton that works with some church. I am the Don Yelton that play with politicians and tries to make them honest. We have talked before but there is a Don Yelton in Shelby area also. The Don Yelton from Jupiter

Now we need to hear from the twins, Ron and Don (yes, another Don!) Both originally from NC.

That's a fact, but when we got together, Suzanne, it was about equal. I don't know who talked the ear off the other! OK, everyone, is this a family trait or not? What do you think? I too stopped at the Yelton Mill about 6 months after it was purchased. They were very nice and even gave me a hat (like the workers used to keep hair out of the flour) with the name "Yelton Flour" on it. If we ever manage to get a reunion going, I'll wear it.

well well another Don Yelton that stopped at Yelton Flour mills. When I stopped by many years ago it was a son-in-law running it then. Glad to see that us yeltons especially the Dons will stop and talk with strangers Don Yelton Jupiter NC

I believe that Lakeside Mills was an eastern NC Mill from the 1736 date. When they bought the Yelton Mill in Spindale, they just kept the Yelton name on the products. Everything else became Lakeside. Correct me if I'm wrong Don. Would any of the Historical Societies in that area have other information about when it was Yelton Mills? Iris From: Don Yelton To: YELTON-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Friday, 28 February, 2003 19:04 PM Suzanne, I don't know where the 1736 date came from, but my grandfather started the one located in Rutherford County. I know I am getting old, but not quite THAT old!!! Yes the Kings are Lakeside Mills and are from Eastern NC. I stopped at the mill last year and visited with one. Don Yelton "Let's Roll" From: Suzanne Shephard [mailto:leonine823@charter.net] Sent: Sunday, February 23, 2003 5:40 PM Since the flour mill has actually been producing since about 1736, does anyone know which of the Yeltons came into the business and when? It says that the King family now owns it. I guess they are Lakeside Mills? Suzanne

Forwarded from Don Yelton. Maybe after his tour, he'll give us a description of the Mill. How about it Don? Iris ----- Original Message ----- From: Don Yelton Sent: Friday, 28 February, 2003 17:21 PM Iris, Archie Rollins Yelton was my grandfather and although he died before I was born, his youngest daughter, Edna Yelton Twitty, is still alive and I visit her about every two weeks. I go by Yelton Milling Co, where my father, uncles and I worked when I was young. We do have Yelton's Best Flour and other products in the stores here, but my wife says it has changed since the family sold it and she uses other brands. I will stop by sometime this spring and take a tour for 'old times sake'. Don Yelton "Let's Roll"

Hi Everyone, I need to contact a cousin, Randy Gregory. The address I have for him failed as it was a home.com account. If anyone has his new address, I'd appreciate it. Thanks for your help, Iris

Hi All, Thanks go to Sarah Leighty for clueing me in about this site.

Hi everyone, I originally sent this on Saturday, 25 September, 1999 Since we have had a lot of new members since then and I've had an inquiry or two about it..... Here is some information about the Yelton Flour Mill... Archie Rollins Yelton, b. 30 Jan 1858, d. 8 Jun 1923, began the Yelton Milling Company in 1913 on Cleghorn Creek, East Court Street in Rutherfordton. It was moved to the present location on Railroad Avenue (actually it is in Spindale, NC) in 1933. Yelton Milling Company passed out of the hands of any Yelton family member about 1992. As far as I know, the flour is still sold in NC, SC, GA and TN with the Yelton name. Does anyone have any other information to add? Iris F. Reily Yelton-list Mom ===== Iris F.
