Cottage Grove, Or
This photo, circa 1950, shows the Lorane Valley Lumber Company sawmill on the south edge of Cottage Grove. This mill was build by J.H. Chambers and operated until his death in 1946. The mill, and another mill in Lorane, several miles to the west, was sold to Warren Daugherty. Daugherty operated it until the early 1950s until fire destroyed most of it. Most of the surviving mill equipment, buildings and timberlands were sold to W.A. Woodard Lumber Company locacted a few short miles to the south.
This photo shows US Highway 99 and the Southern Pacific Railroad line diagonally across the lower right. The still standing Chambers Railroad Covered Bridge is located in the upper left. The Oregon Pacific and Eastern Railroad, which at one time was owned by Chambers, had a spur line that fed this mill and the bridge that ran to the west to the operation in Lorane. The mill in Lorane cut small logs, so the train would ship small logs to the west to be processed, and haul back lumber as well as big logs from the timberlands to be processed at this mill.
