<description><![CDATA[ (Apr 5, 2012) At one time, there were four mills located at the Croghan Dam, on each side of the Beaver River.  John Martin is owner and operator of the last remaining, the Croghan Island Mill.  He specializes in custom windows and doors…things you can’t get at Lowe’s or Home Depot.Up until the stop logs were removed from the dam, Martin’s machinery was powered by water, which drove pulleys and belts in the historic mill.  He&apos;s had to rely on electricty since then, but he&apos;s had to cut back.Martin&apos;s glad the dam has been reclassified as a lower risk. &quot;Hopefully we can go back to water power,&quot; he said, and &quot;business will pick back up and I can get back to normal life again.&quot;Martin gave David Sommerstein a tour of the mill a year ago. Martin says his father bought the mill from Lehman &amp; Zehr, the original owners, in 1969.
