History

The community got its name from the gristmills and sawmills built along Shimers Brook, then known as Chambers Mill Brook,[4] starting in 1722. During the American Revolutionary War, Captains Abram Shimer and James Bonell were at the fort located here to protect the mills.[5] Shimer built a mill here c. 1750.[6] In the 1790s, Jacob Shimer, his son, built a house on Old Mine Road, now River Road. It was documented by the Historic American Buildings Survey in 1970, before being demolished by 1980.[7]
