The property has 5 acres (2.0 ha) out of an original 34-acre (14 ha) mill site property obtained in 1856 by William C. Winters (1809–1864) near Glendale trading post (which later became Wimberley). Winters built a mill and a house, connected by a wagon path which eventually became Ranch Road 12, a busy county highway that eventually split the property.[2]

The mill was later owned by a Wimberley.[2]
