Look at the size of those logs

I wonder how many people were killed as the result of a log rolling back down to the ground ? Mrs. Isaac's family were pioneers in the Dubach and Ruston area in logging. They would move in and build a mill and then log that area for years and then move the mill again. I have a black and white photo I will have to find of a spur off a RR track in Dubach eighty years ago. We have been very lucky to have had family members that have done a very extensive family tree on both sides that go back to the 1300's. Family Tree Maker is a great program for any of you that might want to learn more about your family. With the net like it is now it has been made even more user friendly.
