The Trois-Saumons river water mill in Saint-Jean-Port-Joli was already in operation during the French regime in New France.

An 1815 engraving by Joseph Bouchette shows the Aubert de Gaspé mill surrounded by an important industrial establishment: the Harrower distillery.

Around 1980, its owner, Mr. Edmond Hudon, then in his eighties, was still operating it, but in slow motion.
