Another important lumbering point was at Central Mills located at Little Bangor, one mile south of Franktown and operated by Gilman N. Folsom, Charles A. Bragg and Albert Bragg, under the firm name of Folsom, Bragg & Co. This firm worked several big teams between Central Mills and had yards at Carson and Dayton, besides delivering a good deal of lumber on the ground at the various mines on the Comstock.
In this connection I am reminded that I owe the memory of my father, Charles Allen Bragg, and to my mother, Marcia Bryant Bragg, a few words, for it was such men and women as they who left their imprint on the pages of Nevada's early history. The spring from the loins of Maine's most sturdy race of people. They spent the honeymoon of their lives in the Pine Tree State, father coming west in about 1860, followed by mother and five children--Mrs. J. E. Dealey, of San Francisco, Mrs. Addie E. Bacon, who passed to the beyond in February 1907,in New York, Mrs. R. L. Fulton of Reno, Mrs. W.R. Jenvey of Hoboken, New Jersey, and myself in 1864. Father was located at the Carson yard and did the outside business for the firm of Folsom, Bragg & Co. He shipped much lumber to Austin, Ione, and Hamilton, White Pine Mining District, then a part of Lander County. The firm of Folsom, Bragg & Co. cut nearly all the fence lumber used in Churchill and Douglas Counties up to 1865.
