On Abram's Creek, near the site of the early Cherokee village, Chilhowee, William and Robert James established a water-powered cotton and woolen spinning and weaving factory. A charter for the business was issued in 1846 and the mill was evidently in operation by 1853. The business closed before the Civil War and was never reopened. Tapoco Hydroelectric Project MPS Chilhowee was listed in the National Register of Historic Places on May 27, 2004.
