 . Tanner Brothers Lumber & Coal was owned and operated by my great uncle, Albert A. Tanner, who married Nellie Finch. My grandfather, William (Bill) Tanner worked with Albert at the lumber yard. As best I can tell, they operated the lumber yard in Arapahoe from about 1900 to 1913. The lumber yard is still in operation, but has changed hands many times. Donated by Stephen W. Tanner. |
