ca. 1942. The Henry Mill & Timber Co. plant was built at this location in 1924. They began operations in July of 1925 as a lumber mill. After a fire in 1942 and with the expanding fronts of World War II, the company began making a name for itself in the "prefabricated" market. They built buildings and hangars for the armed forces that only needed to be reassembled on arrival.
