Another thought - perhaps the name was "McLaughlin" at some time. Referenced to "mills" back then probably referred to grain, not steel mills. There is a creek running through Bridgeville called McLaughlin Run (see McLaughlin Run Road) connecting with Upper St. Cair Township. I don't know the history of the naming of the creek because it may have been called Coal Run or Panther Run back in the late 1800s. Just a thought for further research.
