| Title | Mumby Lumber and Shingle Mill, Malone, Washington, 1939 |
| Date | 1939 |
| Caption | The Mumby Lumber and Shingle Mill was started in Bordeaux, Washington by S.C. Mumby around 1905. By 1924, the mill was owned by the Bordeaux family. The Bordeaux family also bought the Vance Lumber Company in nearby Malone around 1922. That mill was renamed the Mumby Lumber and Shingle Company. Both mills were out of business by the late 1930s.
This view of the Mumby Lumber and Shingle Mill shows the mill in disrepair, probably after its closure. |
