It was the family of Pierre Thibodeau, the miller of Port Royal, Acadia who came to the St John Valley with the mill technology necessary to begin the process of building the necessary mills in the new communities such as the Theriault Mill in Baker Brook, New Brunswick where Joseph and his son Joachim provided for their village for many years. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe first volume of this book focuses on the family culture and history of twelve of the early mills in the St John Valley while the second volume is a detailed compilation of the 250 historic family and commercial mills that existed in the St John Valley from 1785 to 1985. Volume 1 focuses on the relationship between the local miller and his neighbors and customers, and how the knowledge and technology of the mills was transferred between generations and between families.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Joseph Ralph Theriault\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 8555445841\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798555445841\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/21\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 550\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.77lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 8.50w x 1.11d","brand":"Joseph Ralph Theriault","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43944803696895,"sku":"9798555445841","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_9813f07e-f896-4d2c-a3e4-b016409b7076.jpg?v=1681505166","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/moulins-du-madawaska-tome-second-joseph-ralph-theriault-9798555445841","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
