Osborne Bros. (Boy River, Minn.).

Hide Profile

Osborne Bros. were dealers and shippers of railroad ties, pulpwood, lumber, shingles, mining timber, poles, posts, cordwood, and other forest products made from cedar, tamarack, spruce, and birch trees. They operated at Remer and later at Boy River, Minnesota, in the years immediately following the great White Pine lumbering era. The firm had a cedar yard at Remer, Minn., and evidently operated several logging camps. Principals in the organization included Louis and Anton Osborne. The firm may also have included John Jacob Osborne and Edward A. Osborne.
