BIOGRAPHICAL/HISTORICAL NOTE The Brownell Land Company was the 21st century legacy of the numerous business ventures of the Brownell family in Louisiana beginning in 1880. The business ventures began when Charles Richard Brownell (1840-1929) and Robert M. Moore, both Michigan lumbermen, purchased large tracts of land in Louisiana for lumber after the Louisiana Timber Act of 1876, and subsequently organized the Berwick Lumber Company in 1886. The Berwick Lumber Company consisted of a lumber and shingles mill in Berwick City, Louisiana, and a sash, door, and blind factory in New Orleans. Charles Horace Brownell, (1865-1934) son of Charles Richard Brownell, managed the latter. This early business was the start of the Brownell family’s establishment in Morgan City and Louisiana. Charles Richard Brownell later partnered with his son and Gustave Drews and chartered the Brownell Drews Lumber Company in 1900. Charles Russell Brownell Sr. (1890-1947), son of Charles Horace Brownell, aided in the family business working at the Berwick Lumber Company from 1911 to 1916 and acted as vice president and secretary/treasurer of the Brownell Drews Lumber Company, but he was also the president and manager of another business venture, the Peoples Ice and Cold Storage Company in Morgan City, which manufactured and supplied ice predominately to local shrimpers. Charles Russell Brownell Sr. also began leasing land to the oil industry. This was a lucrative move because by 1925, the lumber business in Louisiana declined due to cypress deforestation. Brownell Drews Lumber Company liquidated in 1930 and Morgan City gradually ceased being part of the lumber industry and moved into shrimping and petroleum. Charles Russell Brownell Sr. later partnered with Roland E. Kidd Sr., son of Ella Drews, Gustave Drews’ sister, and Robert E. Kidd, to form Brownell Kidd Company. The company provided oil, mineral, and gas leases to oil companies, enabling the companies to drill on Brownell Kidd Company’s property. Charles Richard Brownell, the first of the Brownell family to move to Louisiana in 1886, practiced law in Michigan before becoming a lumberman in Louisiana. With his first wife, Clarissa Moon, he had one son, Charles Horace Brownell. Charles Horace Brownell, aside from working for the family’s lumber business, was also a banker. He resided in New Orleans and operated the Berwick Lumber Company’s New Orleans warehouse. He married Frances Pierson and they had two children, Charles Russell Brownell Sr. and Claire Horatio Brownell (1903-1972). Charles Russell Brownell Sr. worked in the lumber business, began the Peoples Ice and Cold Storage business, and initiated the leasing of property to oil companies. Charles Russell Brownell Sr. served the Louisiana legislature from 1936 until his death in 1947. He also participated in banking and real estate interests, both commercial and residential. Charles Russell Brownell Sr. and his wife, Anna Widmer (1892-) had one son, Dr. Charles Russell Brownell Jr. Like his father, Dr. Charles Russell Brownell Jr. (1913-1989) was actively engaged in politics. He was mayor of Morgan City from 1951 to 1983 and served for the State House of Representatives from 1948 to 1952. He had a medical practice in Morgan

City and served as the president of Morgan City Lakewood Hospital. He also served in World War II for the US Army Medical Corp. Since Charles Richard Brownell’s arrival in Louisiana in 1886, the Brownell family participated in philanthropic activities and charities. The family began the Brownell Foundation, a nonprofit that supports education and religious activities. One of the works of this foundation was the donation of Brownell Memorial Park, a gift from Claire Horatio Brownell in 1971. The Brownell Foundation also gave to local schools and churches. The Brownell Foundation and the Brownell Land Company were active in 2013. The Brownell Land Company was a trust management/real estate company. The CEO, Michael Vanover, was the grandson of Dr. Charles Russell Brownell Jr. The Brownell Land Company participated in many lawsuits against oil companies, forcing the companies to return to their previously leased properties and plug abandoned orphan wells to alleviate potential and realized environmental problems.

SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE

The Brownell Land Company records date from 1843 to 1997, with the bulk of the records dating 1890 to 1970. The Brownell Land Company records document the everyday business transactions of the numerous businesses created and operated by the Brownell Family. The records reveal the Brownell family’s change from lumbermen to oil lessors and illustrate the mark left by lumbermen and oil lessors on the Louisiana coast and terrain in St. Martin, Assumption, St. Mary, Iberia, Iberville, Pointe Coupee, and Terrebonne Parishes. The records also reflect how the Brownell family used the resources in Louisiana, such as waterways, lumber, fishing, and oil to create wealth. The records are arranged in the following series represented by businesses: Berwick Lumber Company (1875-1955, 1965, undated); Brownell Drews Lumber Company ((1843-1982, undated (bulk 1910-1940)); Brownell Foundation, (1968-1990, undated); Brownell Kidd Company, (1915, 1923-1997, undated); and People’s Ice and Cold Storage, (1926-1967). The series are divided into subseries. Descriptions for individual series and subseries are under Series Descriptions. Although the series are organized by business, records of individual business occasionally overlap in series because many businesses resulted from previous businesses and they often had an overlap in operating years and shared property. The result is that occasionally a record from another series is located in a different series. The records include financial records, such as taxes, journals, ledgers, cash books, and annual reports; land records including deeds, leases, sales, and titles; lumber records including tallies from the mill and tallies from what is pulled from the land and water; and administrative and legal records such as correspondence, court cases, and meeting minutes. There is also a significant number of employee records, which document changes in labor standards.

SERIES DESCRIPTIONS Series I. Berwick Lumber Company 1875-1955, 1965, undated The Berwick Lumber Company was a lumber and shingles mill located in Berwick City, Louisiana, and a warehouse and a sash, door, and blind factory in New Orleans on Clio and Freret Street. Two lumbermen from Michigan, Robert M. Moore and Charles Richard Brownell, organized the Brownell Moore Lumber Company in 1886. It was later authorized to operate in Louisiana and became the Berwick Lumber Company and a stock company in 1889. Charles Richard Brownell was the president and the board was comprised of other lumbermen from Michigan. The company owned tracts of cypress timber expected to last fifteen years,1 bought after the Louisiana Timber Act 1876, which made land previously owned by the federal government for sale as low as 25 cents an acre. Charles Horace Brownell, son of Charles Richard Brownell, was the manager of the New Orleans business, which contracted work for interior finishes and products from the lumber. In 1918, the factory burnt down and the company dissolved. Later, Norgress Menefee Cypress Company purchased the mill in Berwick City. In 1900, Charles Richard Brownell entered a joint venture called the Brownell Drews Lumber Company with Charles Horace Brownell, and Gustave Drews’ family. Records are arranged into three subseries: Correspondence, Financial, and General and Administrative Records. Correspondence includes orders and complaints about cypress from furnishing and shingle manufacturers and orders from other lumber mills. There are also letters inquiring about employment. The correspondence is only for 1893 and correspondence for other years of operation are not present in the records, with the exception of a few letters tipped in throughout the other series. The financial records primarily consist of primarily ledgers, journals, cash books, and tax receipts for land owned in Louisiana and its many parishes. Receipts document acreage owned by the Berwick Lumber Company. General and administrative records mostly relate to the Ramos Lumber Company, run by Edward Everett Moberly. Ramos Lumber Company would pull lumber from Berwick Lumber Company lands and split the lumber with Berwick. The overlap in business and operating years of Berwick Lumber Company and the Brownell Drews Lumber Company results in the individual series containing some overlapping records with the other series. Folders are arranged alphabetically within the subseries. Series II. Brownell Drews Lumber Company 1843-1982, undated (bulk 1910-1940) Charles R. Brownell, Gustave Drews, and Charles Horace Brownell chartered the Brownell-Drews Lumber Company in 1900. Prior to this joint venture, the Brownells operated the Berwick Lumber Company and the Drews operated Drew’s Pieux Island Saw and Shingle Mill. Brownell Drews Lumber Company was in Morgan City, Louisiana, on Front and Brashear Street. Brownell Drews Lumber Company had an

estimated annual output of 12 million feet of saw lumber, shingle, and lathe.2 The company had a steamer, the William Drews, and numerous pull boats. It voluntarily liquidated April 23, 1930, but operated into the middle of the century.

The Brownell-Drews Lumber Company harvested trees from its properties, but it also harvested trees from properties that it leased. The company would offer money to land owners in return for clearing their property of lumber. The majority of the wood harvested was cypress and tupelo. The lumber was harvested on land, but in most cases the lumber was cleared in the swamp with a pull boat and log boom. Lumber companies built canals and waterways to help with moving the lumber through areas and booms created barriers at the mouth of the waterways to collect the lumber. Cypress harvested was used for fine carpentry wood while smaller pieces were used for shingles. The Brownell Drews Lumber Company typically sold this wood to Texas and the North. Schooners and then railroads moved the lumber to markets. The Brownell Drews Lumber Company records are divided into four subseries arranged in the following order: Administrative and Legal, Financial, Property, and Lumber Records. The overlap in business years and business dealings between the Berwick Lumber Company, the Brownell Drews Lumber Company, and the Brownell Kidd Company resulted in this series containing overlapping business records with other series. Folders are arranged in alphabetical order by title in subseries. The bulk of the administrative and legal records include court cases, correspondence, and board of directors meeting books. Some property and financial records are included. The Financial Records subseries contains ledgers, journals, cashbooks, tax records, and payroll records. Included in this subseries are records relating to the liquidation. Property records reflect the increased property resulting from the partnership between the Drews and the Brownell’s and document the Brownell Drews Lumber Company’s negotiated leases with other properties, such as Rebecca Plantation and Rebecca Planting and Manufacturing Company. Property records include deeds, sales, and surveys. There are numerous records that document the location and amount of land owned by the company, including folders titles “Description and classification of the lands in Louisiana owned by Brownell Drews Lumber Company;” and “Stenographer’s notebooks,” and “Swamp land, worksheets.” Records show negotiations as well as disputes over property lines. Lumber records include tallies of lumber cut from the mill and tallies of lumber harvested from a variety of locations, especially via timber float and pull boat. Tallies of lumber harvested are called by numerous names including log tallies, lumber tallies, and timber books. Log tallies from the May Brothers comprise of a large number of the records in this subseries. The May Brothers and the Brownell Drews Lumber Company had a working partnership in some areas in regards to lumber collected. Records that reflect a sample of the lumber cut at the mill include mill tallies, which detail the amount and type of lumber processed at the mill dating from 1921 to 1928; scattered mill tallies wanting. 2 15 cypress

Samples of these records were taken and months were missing in the original run. Additional records regarding pull boat activities are included in the Financial Records subseries in payroll. Series III. Brownell Foundation, 1968-1990, undated Brownell Foundation records document the establishment of Brownell Memorial Park and Campanile, a gift from Claire Horatio Brownell. The park, located in Morgan City, contains a carillon tower and 9.5 acres of native swampland dedicated for use of a non-denominational worship in a natural setting. Claire Horatio Brownell was the daughter of Charles Horace Brownell and Frances Pierson Brownell. Brownell Foundation records document the establishment of the park with board of director minutes, annual reports, and park plans. Slides depicting the park are found in the box titled “Slides depicting family, bayou, hunting camps, and Memorial Tower construction” in the subseries Property Records in the Brownell Drews Lumber Company series. Folders are arranged alphabetically by title. Series IV. Brownell Kidd Company, 1915, 1923-1997, undated Charles Russell Brownell Sr. and Roland E. Kidd Sr. founded the Brownell Kidd Company in 1951. The Brownell Kidd Company managed the property previously owned by the Brownell Drews Lumber Company. On this land, the company provided oil, mineral, and gas leases to oil companies, enabling the companies the right to drill on Brownell Kidd Company property. A rent was paid for the use of the property by the lessee and royalties were paid for the minerals removed based on an agreed upon rate in the lease. The Kidd family was, by marriage, an extension of the Drews family. Ella Drews (1870), daughter of William and Margaret Drews, married Robert E. Kidd, a timberman. The couple had six children, Hugh (1891), Roland E. Sr. (1893- ), Arleigh, Margaret, Ella, and Douglas. Roland E. Kidd Sr. and Annie would have a son Roland R. Kidd Jr. (1925), who also worked for the Brownell Kidd Company. Records in the series reflect both the needs of the oil companies and land owners, but also reflect how some government regulations, both state and federal effected the business operations. Records contain information on the Federal Power Commission, which originally regulated electricity, but after the Natural Gas Act of 1938, regulated the sale and transportation of natural gas. These regulations expanded in 1954, when the Federal Power Commission gained jurisdiction over natural gas sold through interstate commerce (Phillips Petroleum Co. v. Wisconsin). The Division of Conservation in Louisiana also regulated exploration and gas production. These state and federal regulations effected royalty payments for oil companies and Brownell Kidd Company. Records are divided into four subseries arranged in the following order: Administrative and Legal, Financial, Property, and Geologist, Clifton A. Cowan Records. The bulk of


of 54

all the records concern leases and legal matters. Folders in subseries are arranged alphabetically by title. Administrative and legal records are primarily correspondence. The correspondence includes transactions between Brownell Kidd Company and individuals and companies negotiating oil, gas and mineral lease. Related records include leases, which are in the Property Records subseries. Records include requests to survey properties and negotiations for royalty and interest rates. Financial records include annual reports, cash books, and financial statements. There are also records documenting the oil and gas royalties that the Brownell Kidd Company received from the lessees on its property. Property records include leases for oil, mineral, and gas; seismic permits; right of way permits; and abstracts of titles. Records are arranged alphabetically by folder title, with the bulk being leases. There is a section for leases and cancelled leases. Leases are written using a tract of land called a production unit, which is the combination of multiple tracts of land in an area that produce as much natural gas from a combined number of tracts as possible. These multiple tracts will be put in an agreement called a division order, which reflects all the properties in the production unit and the royalties agreed upon for these properties. Leases are mostly from oil and gas companies, but there are also leases given to hunting camps. These hunting camps did not provide a very large income for Brownell Kidd Company, but their presence on the land enabled Brownell Kidd Company to monitor for illegal use of its land. The seismic permits are permits for data to be collected that reflects rock formations and fluids around the rock. The subseries Geologist, Clifton A. Cowan Records includes records of the geologist hired by the Brownell Kidd Company to negotiate leases, royalties, and potential outputs of wells located on its properties. The geologist watched over the well, looked at the units, and mad sure that no one else is taking what is below Brownell Kidd Company property. Clifton A. Cowan originally worked for Atwater, Cowan and Associates Consulting Geologists and later, Geoscience Consulting services International, Inc. Cowan reviewed the data for Brownell Kidd Company, often suggesting a better deal for the property value, and his data was supported further by a geophysicist hired by the oil and gas company. Topics discussed in the records include improperly plugged wells left on the property. Brownell Kidd Company and later, Brownell Land Company, sued oil companies that drilled on its property so that the wells were not environmental hazards. Series V. People’s Ice and Cold Storage, 1926-1967 Charles Russell Brownell formed People’s Ice and Cold Storage, located on Front Street in Morgan City, in 1930. The company manufactured ice and had cold storage for sale. The majority of the business was sales of manufactured block and crushed ice to shrimpers and it did a smaller business selling ice to peddlers.


of 54

The People’s Ice and Cold Storage records are divided into five subseries arranged in the following order: Administrative, Employee, Financial, and General, and Legal Records. Records include board of director’s minutes, stock certificates, financial statements, tax reports, contracts and leases. Of interest is the subseries Employee Records. These records reflect the changing nature of labor standards in the United States, specifically due to the wage and hour division. Many of the records contain information regarding the Fair Labors Standards Act. People’s Ice and Cold Storage argued that because it sold ice to fishing boats, its product was interstate commerce and not subject to the law of minimum wage or maximum work week. This argument was unsuccessful and People’s Ice and Cold Storage was forced to pay back wages to employees, some of whom were off to war and difficult to locate.
