HERREN SAWMILL
Head of Willow Creek
July 9, 1908: "Willard Herren and Frank Wilder came down from the new saw mill at the head of Willow creek, Tuesday.
Mr. Herren states that the new mill is now in running order with plenty of logs and an expert sawyer. Already enough lumber has been sawed for the necessary buildings to be erected at the mill.
Regular work on filling orders was commenced today.
A dam has been built across the prong of Willow creek on which the mill is located making a fine mill pond to hold the logs." (Heppner Gazette)
