R. H. Poole Lumber Company
R. H. Poole sold out his sawmill to N. D. Caton in 1928. He soon constructed a new lumber facility on Turkey Creek, where the Vance Jenkins home is now located (1988), according to Fred McKenzie. He cut out and moved to Pruitt's Lake. After cutting out there, he moved back to Avinger and built his final mill.
