Early Industries
Farming was the first occupation. They raised pigs, cattle, hens and other animals for their own use. Then they began to deal with mixed farming. At this point in time potatoes were not an important crop.
In winter, the men went to the woods and lumbered. In 1896, a mill was built by Fred and Archie Hale. Donald Fraser later purchased this mill in 1901. This mill was located where the present Fraser Paper Inc. mill stands.
