This picture has my Grandfather in back row on right side, My Uncle Milo, My cousin David Jones, several of the Hall Men, these men cut pulp wood for the Paper Mill.

This is in 1901, Milo and William Woodcock and Edwin Durham bringing out logs in South Edwards! Notice the size of the logs, Milo Woodcock was a Rich man, he traveled all over cutting off Timber and selling it to sawmills !

It is nice when you receive such treasures as these old photographs. Sadly not many future generations are interested in having them passed down.

Don't forget, Remember our Vets !

Shucks, I love these pictures. I love the old family pictures, something about them makes me feel good inside. When you see photos like these you know these men WORKED! Imma tell you them horses worked to move those logs! WOW
Yeah I can imagine the thrill. I get a surprise ever once in awhile and thrills me to pieces. I got one last year of my dad whittling.
True, not many will be interested, but I think one day ONE will want to hold the treasures.
Good one my friend, loved it.
Sherry & jack, beautiful day we had in Flroida
