Kreider Mill is seen behind a horse and buggy on a view taken by Luther Harpel about 1907 at the 3-archstone bridge over the Quittapahilla Creek on South White Oak Street on the South Annville Township line. To the right is seen the Raiguel family barn. Both the Kreider and the Raiguel families settled in the area in the mid-eighteenth century. Abraham and Elizabeth Raiguel built the mill in 1797. After 1840, it was owned by David Kreider and his descendants. No longer used, the mill still stands. Nearby is the 1793 Raiguel house, not shown. The stone bridge was replaced by a concrete structure in the 1930s. - From Lebanon County: A Post Card History (1992)
