| Contextual Notes | The Kerry Timber Company operated in the early twentieth century. Its president was Albert S. Kerry, who founded the town of Kerry in Columbia County, Oregon in 1912. The following year, Kerry incorporated the Columbia & Nehalem River Railroad to create a way to access timber holdings in the Nehalem Valley. The railroad was also known as the Kerry Line. The Kerry Timber Company had locations in Kerry, Neverstil, the Nehalem Valley, and Sunnyside. Neverstil was where the Kerry Timber Company had its repair shops for the Columbia & Nehalem River Railroad. In 1925, Kerry sold the company to the K.P. Timber Company (formed by the Peninsula Lumber Company of Portland, Oregon and the Knappton Mills Company of Knappton, Washington). |
