Jolly Mill, Historic mill and park in Pierce City, Missouri, United States
The three-story mill stands on limestone foundations with original hand-hewn timber framing along Capps Creek in Newton County, Missouri.
Thomas Isbell and his son John constructed the mill in 1848 as a whiskey distillery, which later transformed into a grist mill operating until 1973.
The mill generated a settlement named Jollification, serving as a vital stop for wagon trains and stagecoaches during the 19th century.
The park welcomes visitors daily from sunrise to sunset with a five-dollar per car entry fee and offers facilities for private events.
The mill area functions as a trout fishing location where the Missouri Department of Conservation stocks rainbow and brown trout throughout four miles of stream.
