STANWOOD LUMBER COMPANY
Linn County - Brownsville
January 10, 1922: "The Stanwood sawmill which has been shut down for many months resumed work today. It is located three miles up the Calapooia from Brownsville.
The mill will cut out what timber remains at hand and then move to the east side of the mountain and work in new timber. This assures sawmill men of work for a long time. No other mills are now cutting lumber in the vicinity of Brownsville. This mill during the war was engaged in cutting railroad ties." (Albany Evening Herald)

November 21, 1930: “The Stanwood Lumber Co. of Brownsville is starting logging operations on Courtney Creek. Other mills which have been shut down during the summer may also start running, thus helping out, to some extent, the unemployed situation. Lumber prices are still very low but loggers and truck men are arguing to work out a reduced price in order to start things moving.” (The New Era)
