Family runs lumber company
MAROA (AP) — After deciding to leave the Colfax area, Charles Hamilton could have moved elsewhere in 1955 when he started working for Maroa Lumber Co.
However, Hamilton found an opportunity for a job he liked in Maroa and, at the same time, a place to call home and raise a family.
"I happened to find a business to buy," Hamilton said. "I could have gone several other places. It's harder to move when you have more tying you down, so I stuck with the location."
