We are blessed with several gristmills that grind local com. Although sawmills and gristmills were built almost as soon as colonial towns were established throughout New England, these mills had limited effects on fish. The visibility of "domestic economy" enabled women, in turn, to assume economic roles outside the home, such as managing sawmills, gristmills, slaughterhouses, textile and clothing stores, drug shops (women were generally the acknowledged authorities on traditional medicine), and lens-grinding shops (see Davis 226-27). |
