Learn the truth about the buidling of the Cone Mill Villages, the "Family Trust" Bank, and the secrets of 111 West Washington. The property's beginnings, in the 1850's, to when the Brothers purchase the remainder of the property in 1899 and beyond. 1887-2025, come and learn about the shady business of The Brothers Cone.
