Stordy's Mills, known by that name for well over a century, .@ 5 were situated on the northeast branch of Westmoreland River on r "the old French Road leading from Prince County to Charlottetown." 5 The site was originally owned by Joseph Trowsdale, deeded to him S by his father. He sold it to Mr. Platts, who built the Mills in the late 1820's. In a few years, Mr. Platts sold the Mills to Thomas Stordy, who began business there in 1833.
