Brosser Wood & Co.
W. T. Block wrote in Cotton Bales, Keelboats and Sternwheelers: A History of the Sabine River and Trinity River Cotton Trades, 1837-1900 that by 1853 sawmill operations near Orange included those of John Merriman, R. A. Neyland, R. H. Jackson, Brosser Wood and Co., and the Empire Mills. The Brosser Wood & Co. mill probably evolved into the Brazee & Woods mill that was operating at Orange in 1857.
