"The first mention of a mill at the site of the present Linchester is found
in the Dorchester Rent roll, here a survey of 20 May, 1682, for Thomas
Pattison is described as being on Hunting Creek, above the milldam....In the act of 1773, this old mill was mentioned as fixing the southern boundary of Caroline County.
