The Lumberman’s Club of Memphis was established in 1898. Having grown up here and spent so much time in the Mid-South, I can imagine hardwoods are a part of our economy, but I really hadn’t thought about a Memphis Lumbermen’s Club nor that Memphis would be the headquarters for the National Hardwood Lumber Association. According to Wilson Lumber Company, the Lumbermen’s Club of Memphis is the oldest lumber organization of its type in the world.
