"Robert H. Treman State Park was formed in 1920 after Enfield Glen was donated to New York State by the park's namesake, Robert H. Treman, and his wife, Laura Treman."

"About 1915, as Treman was bringing friends to visit the Enfield gorge — a well-known Ithaca scenic destination — he noted the decline in the hamlet of Enfield Falls. Remembering his family association from his childhood days, he made arrangements to buy the mill as well as the miller’s house. He closed the mill, which was still operating, temporarily."

"Enfield Falls is located in the southeastern part of Enfield. The park is named in honor of Robert H. Treman, who presented the land to New York State in 1920. The Grist Mill located there was constructed in 1838-39 and was in use until 1916. Today, tours of the building are offered when the park is open."
