Sol G. Simpson and his family moved to Mason County in 1887, where Simpson worked laying ties and rails for the Port Blakely Mill Company's logging railroad. He formed S. G. Simpson Company in Matlock in 1890. Three of Simpson's brothers joined him in Mason County, and two of them worked for him. Simpson Logging Company opened its first sawmill, the Reed Mill, at Shelton in 1925. Numerous other mills and logging operations along the West Coast have been acquired by Simpson over the years.

Fairfield, Washington: Ye Galleon Press, 1986.] Eight-doored crummies called "Filing Cabinets" transported loggers from camp to the woods and back at camp no. 4. Foreman Frank Lounsbery stands in doorway at right. The first camp no. 4 was located on the Wynooche River not far from Grisdale in 1924. Caption on image: Camp 4, Simpson Log Co. C. Kinsey Photo.
