HISTORY by Tony Howe:
Glade had a post office from 1893 to 1903, but the railroad first listed it as a flag stop in May 1901. The post office closed until February 1904, and operated until closing for good in 1908 after the sawmill located here closed. The railroad later built a spur further north, calling it Glade in March 1917. INDUSTRY - Mills & Lambert- 1893-1895 J. H. Mills- 1895-1906 Glade Lumber Co.- 1906-1908 |
