The Hebron Milling Company building was built in 1880 at the crossing of the National Trail (Route 40) and the Ohio Canal in the village of Hebron. It stood on the edge of the village turning basin, where canal boats docked to load or unload and could turn around for a return trip. William Bebout built the building and operated it as a flour and saw mill. He took young Davie Geiger in as a partner in 1891, and Geiger remained with the mill for over 50 years. In 1924, Albert Voorhees, Bebout's son-in-law, entered the business and became owner when Geiger died in 1943. At that time Ralph Voorhees, Bert's brother, joined the business, and the two men operated the mill for many years. Neil Hutzell served as bookkeeper for many years. In 1975, ownership of the mill passed to Nancy Voorhees Smith, and Don and Eugene Gutridge operated the mill. In 2003, Brezina Design and Construction Services purchased the building and renovated it for offices.
