}}Weston Mills (variant names Westons Mills and Weston’s Mills) is a hamlet in the towns of Portville and Olean in Cattaraugus County, New York, United States. It is counted as a census-designated place by the U.S. Census Bureau, which recorded a population of 1,472 at the 2010 census.[3]

History

Weston Mills was founded by the Weston family, three brothers who set up the titular mill in the community. According to county administrator Jack Searles, the name was likely either Weston's Mills or Westons Mills at first (the 1869 Beers Atlas uses the name "Westonville" for the location), then changed to Weston Mills at the behest of President Benjamin Harrison, who sought to standardize post-office names by removing unnecessary possessive forms (see United States Board on Geographic Names). The "s" was slowly, and colloquially, restored over the course of the 1960s, after a store (now Carpet Town Carpet One / Ashley Furniture HomeStores) opened using the "Weston's" name.[4] The original Weston family homestead is now owned by the government, which operates it as a group home.
