From 1825 to 1883, the Battle family maintained ownership of the mill. As the southern cotton industry expanded after the Civil War, the cotton mill experienced rapid growth. The company also supported a residential village for employees, which was eventually incorporated into the city of RockyMount in the 1920s. The mill was a major supplier of cotton yard to the United States Army during World War II . The general decline in the southern textile industry beginning in the 1970s eventually impacted RockyMount Mills, and the mill closed its doors in 1996.
