Sawmills on Halfway Brook

hwb-0161

Halfway Brook flowed through an ocean of large old magnificent trees in the town appropriately named Lumberland. There were 8 or 9 sawmills on Halfway Brook around the turn of the 19th century, as well as other sawmills in the area, or that is what I read in Johnston’s Reminiscences and Quinlan’s Sullivan County.

I now have a site that relates to Book I: The Mill on Halfway Brook that you may be interested in: Halfway Brook
