SAWMILL CHAPTER

The Sawmill Community was established during the 1920’s under the jurisdiction of the Bureau of Indian Affairs. A small sawmill was first established near Fluted Rock, approximately 7 miles west from the Sawmill community. A fire destroyed this mill in the 1940’s, however another mill was built at the present location, 1/4 of a mile north of the present Sawmill Chapter House. Thus, the community was name Sawmill. The Sawmill Chapter House was built and certified in 1957.
