On June 5, 1891, the historic Uhrich s Mills a Uhrichsville landmark for nearly a century was destroyed by fire.
“The mill was owned by Mr. T.B. Smith,” a correspondent for the Tuscarawas Advocate wrote. “We understand he loses heavily. The mill was doing a splendid business and ’tis sad to see these industries go up in smoke.”
The mill, which stood on the west bank of Big Stillwater Creek just south of the present day Trenton Avenue bridge, had been in existence since 1806.
The first owner was Michael Uhrich Sr., a Pennsylvania native who came to Tuscarawas County in 1804. He was the first settler in what is now Uhrichsville, and the city is named for his family.
UHRICHSVILLE Portions of Newport Avenue and Washington Avenue have begun to slip in recent days, a problem that Mayor Mark Haney attributes to the removal of a low-head dam on Big Stillwater Creek in October. Newport Avenue, back of the dam, has gotten worse every day, Haney said, noting that a catch basin there has separated from a pipe.
Meanwhile, Waterworks Hill Road south of town remains closed to traffic, with the portion of the highway next to the creek continuing to sink. The 1,200-foot long slip on the county road was noticed shortly after the dam removal.
Jeff Arthurs, who lives on S. Water Street Extension, has seen a 70-foot portion of his property along the creek sink about 5 to 6 feet in recent months. In some places, the drop off begins about 14 or 15 feet from the creek.
