About Hoquiam, Washington
Hoquiam is a city of 8,776 people in Grays Harbor County, at the mouth of the Hoquiam River. The Quinault, Humptulips, Wynoochee and Chehalis peoples lived in this region long before settlers came, and the Hoquiam may have seen themselves as a group of their own. James Karr, the first white settler, arrived from Oregon in 1859. In 1867 Ed Campbell won a post office for the settlement and had to give it a name, so he chose Hoquiam, the local Indian word for the river, which had usually been written Hokium.
Lumber built the town. In 1881 George H. Emerson, agent for the San Francisco lumberman A. M. Simpson, bought 300 acres from settler Johnny James, and the North Western Lumber Company mill was finished in August 1882. Emerson, later called the Father of Hoquiam, decided where the streets would run, and he sat on the first town council after Hoquiam was incorporated on May 21, 1890.
- The oldest house, 1872Ed Campbell served as Hoquiam's first postmaster until he retired in 1887. The house he built in March 1872, at 18th Street and Riverside Avenue, is the oldest in Hoquiam. In 1873 a small school opened in the home of Johnny James for the few children in the settlement.
- Waiting for the railroadRumors in 1889 that the Northern Pacific might end its line here pulled in settlers and money, and that year the population jumped from 400 to 1,500. Building tripled in 1890 and land values rose by more than 1,000 percent. The tracks did not reach Hoquiam until 1899, four years after they reached Aberdeen, but then mill money poured in, and shipments of lumber and shingles, once sent only by water, climbed sharply.
- The Lytle brothers' shinglesBrothers Robert and Joseph Lytle built the Hoquiam Lumber and Shingle Company in 1902, one of the big mills that came after the railroad. By 1906 it ranked among the world's leading makers of cedar shingles. The Joseph Lytle Home is on the National Register.
- From pulp to rayonIn 1927 the Grays Harbor Pulp Company opened a pulp mill in Hoquiam. After the Hammermill Paper Company of Pennsylvania bought stock, the company added a paper mill and became Grays Harbor Pulp & Paper. In 1936 it merged with Rayonier, which made a wood pulp its customers turned into rayon.
- Logger's Playday since 1965Hoquiam marked its 75th anniversary on September 18, 1965, by holding its first Logger's Playday. The event celebrates the skills of timber workers with speed-climbing, ax-throwing, power sawing and logrolling, and the Hoquiam Elks Lodge #1082 organizes its yearly parade.
