MARCH 30, 1844

Stillwater’s first sawmill (owned by John McKusick) cut its first board, the start of over 60 years of milling in the city.

Thanks to Palma Wright’s, Louis Lauer’s and Lynn Johnson’s classes at Moorhead Public Schools for the research on March’s Day in History.

Thanks also to Minnesota’s Learn and Serve America Service Learning Program for their help.
