    1. New Brick Yard - New Plymouth 1904
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Creel, Bean Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/5d.2ADI/3485 Message Board Post: New Plymouth Outlook New Plymouth, Idaho Friday, April 29, 1904 J. A. Creel, the brick-maker, will begin preparation for a new brick yard next week, to be located at the south end of Charley Bean's farm, a mile and a quarter out of town. Mr. Creel says that owing to the fact that there is more sand in the soil at the new location he can make redder and better brick than he made last year. His first kiln this season will amount to 300,000 brick and it will require one-half of this amount to build the new school-house, Mr. Creel says the brick can be furnished for the school-house for $8 per thousand. With saw-mills and brick-yards so close at hand the cost of the building material in this section should be greatly reduced.
