There is also a chronology of the history of the mill; a list of developments at the mill; a plot plan of the land owned with the mill; a survey of Allandale and a general history of early flour mills in Upper Canada. A list of sources is located at the back of the manual indicating that a number of primary and secondary sources were used.
