| Historicial Development: | A. G. Morrow was enumerated as having a sawmill and grist mill in Precinct 4, Rusk County, in 1870. The mills were worth, respectively, $600 each. In 1870, 150,000 feet of lumber worth worth $1,000 and 1,000 bushels of cornmeal worth $1,000 were produced. The enumerator listed damage as the reason for the low gross value of the milled lumber. The mills employed three men who received a total combined wage of $200.
