That was a fascinating history of lumbering in the area. Thanks, so much for the summary! I am curious to know what might have been the "Warner district" indicated in the reference in your post. Could you or anyone help identify this location and how it came to be called that? Thanks, Linda ---------- Lumbering, John Henry (8) may have worked for George Underwood (relationship unclear) and later "Wilson" on Valentine Pond. Wife Clara apparently worked some times as a cook in the camps. At some point they moved to a farm which was next door to Clara's brother (and Civil War veteran) "Uncle Orange" Ingraham in the "Underwood District" north of Valentine Pond. In 1894 they moved to Warrensburg and, not hat long after, moved to "Charlie Hollow", in a log shanty in a clearing near a log house owned by John Wood (see Orange's (9) description below) where Ernie would die. Later, they moved to the "Warner District."
