History

Settled as a railroad town named after Henry Mills (1829-1910), it was also known as Wellington in the mid to late 1800s. Many residents lived in dugouts or cabins. There was a local general store owned by John Williams, who lived nearby. John Williams Canyon was named after Williams.[http://www.ghosttowns.com/states/ut/mills.html Ghost towns-Mills, Utah]
