In 1904, a post office was opened and three years later, a sawmill would begin operation under the Garrison Norton Lumber Company. After running there for three years, Thomas L. L. Temple (who was part owner of the mill) bought out the interest of the other owners, and established the Temple Lumber Company. The residents of the town voted in 1941 to become incorporated.
