Subject: Mid-19th century waterwheel mills


I wonder if anyone might know where I can find some details (nomenclature, 
elevant designs, etc.) on the mechanism of a typical 19th century waterwheel 
ill, specifically the wheel, shaft, and gearing. The site is a former grist 
ill destroyed during the Civil War located on a north Georgia creek. Many 
hanks,
