Jacob Snider built Snider’s flour mill at 10 King Street. The Snider mill changed hands several times in the 1850s and burned down in 1863. German and Pennsylvania Dutch people settled in the area and they gave the village the name Jacobstettel (Jacob’s village) for Jacob Snider. The village received the name St Jacobs in 1852.

The St Jacob's mill is a central focal point for this once sleepy little village, home to a local Mennonite community.
The St. Jacobs Quilt Gallery is located in The Mill.
Also at The Mill are three other exhibits which welcome the public: the Model Train Exhibit, featuring various local scenes in miniature; the Home Hardware Exhibit and the History of Commercial Lighting Exhibit; and the Maple Syrup Museum.
