John Arthur and Adam Carroway

An unnamed sawmill ten miles from Hayward (eleven miles from Nacogdoches) is reported in the Tap-Line Case to have shipped its lumber traffic along the tracks of the Frost-Johnson company railway, the Nacogdoches and Southeastern. The sawmill was one belonging to John Arthur and Adam Carroway. The Beaumont Journal noted the new mill in Nacogdoches County (1905), ten miles east of Nacogdoches on the first stop between the town and the Angelina River. The community was an old town (thus not Woden: see below) but only had a post office, one store, and two residences. The community may have been Kimball, later known as McClure's.
