Who Knew about the Puryear Roller Mill, which was in operation in Puryear, Tennessee in the 40's and 50's ? The two main items they produced was "Belle of Puryear Flour" and "Pride of Puryear Meal". My mother & dad, Myrtice & Alfred Nichols, sold those two products in our grocery store on Route 5, a few miles from Paris, during that time period. I still have a picture that was given to us by Puryear Roller Mill, as a token of appreciation. The picture is in a metal frame with a small thermometer in the upper right corner. A scanned image of the picture is shown below. Notice the phone number, which indicates it was many years ago. Submitted by Don Nichols.
