History
The Johannesburg Manufacturing Company was incorporated in 1901 by lumbermen Ernest Salling, Rasmus Hanson, and Nels Michelson.[2] The trio built Johannesburg as a lumber mill and company trown, in the same way as they had built the nearby towns of Grayling, Salling, and Lewiston. The first building constructed in the new town was this company store, which was used as the headquarters of the company. The Johannesburg Manufacturing Company lasted for more than twenty-seven years, with the mill cutting over 300 million board feet and employing as many as 200 people.[2]
