Why this spot

1848-1949 Ozark mill and church village

Turley grew around Liberty Baptist Church, organized in 1848, and a three-story water and later steam powered mill that ran until about 1935. It had a drug store, doctor, three stores and lodge halls, and its post office operated from 1886 to 1949.View source →
