  • Dear Michelle:

    Thank you for your query to themessage board.  There doesn't appear to be a reference for Duck's Mill, so I would gather that the name was very locally used and may have died out.  I have contacted one of our local volunteers, Eddie who works for the Waterford County Museum.  If anyone will know, he will be the one!  He may reply to your query or get back to me.  If he does, I will reply on this thread.  

    If you need any further assistance, please let us know.  

    All the best,
