The mill was supposedly built by Thomas Williams, said to be the first settler of Dry Creek in the 1830s and first police juror of Ward 7 of Imperial Calcasieu Parish. The Hanchey family is said to have acquired Williams' property after his death. Both the Lindsey and Dry Creek cemeteries in the community originated about 1861 and still exist today.==Notable people==* James David Cain, former member of both houses of the Louisiana Legislature*Dorothy Sue Hill, current state representative for Beauregard, Allen, and Calcasieu parishes; rancher and retired educator in her native Dry Creek{{cite web|url=http://house.louisiana.gov/H_Reps/members.asp?ID=32|title=Dorothy Sue Hill|publisher=house.Louisiana.gov|accessdate=April 21, 2015}}
