Why this spot
1918-1933 timber company town
Mauldin was a Caddo River Lumber Company logging town founded in 1918 between Mount Ida and Pencil Bluff, with a post office, school, church, offices and many shotgun houses, and a company railroad hauling pine to the mills. Once the virgin timber was cut the company took the town apart almost overnight in 1933.View source →
