Mill Creek

The founding record

Mill Creek, a station on the Pennsylvania railroad six miles east of Huntingdon, was laid out in October, 1848, by James Simpson for David Zook & Company. It takes its name from the stream upon which it is situated. The first stores in this locality were opened at Wilson's Mills about 1828. Mill Creek was incorporated as a borough on December 13, 1905, with I. N. Foust as chief burgess. John W.
