Bivins Lumber Company
The American Lumberman reported a Bivins Lumber Company sawmill at “Tally,” Harrison County, in 1906, and that it had a logging railroad and an electric light plant with 150 lights. The Handbook of Texas notes that “Tallys, Texas, in southwestern Harrison County,” had been established by 1884 as a stop on the Gulf, Colorado & Santa Fe Railroad. By 1930, only scattered homes were in the area.
