Nathaniel Burge came to Cass County in about 1837, purchasing 800+ acres along Euharlee Creek. He built Burge’s Mill from whence the name of the town became. The Lowrys settled in the area in the 1860s and after Burge’s Mill burned, rebuilt on the same foundation and called it Lowry’s Mill, grinding wheat & corn and running a cotton gin.
