The majority of the volumes cover 1865-1888, when Devillo R. Holt (1823-1899) and Uri Balcom (1815-1893) were in partnership. These two natives of New York State founded a company which engaged in the lumbering of white pine in Oconto and Marinette counties, and also operated cargo vessels on the Great Lakes, a sawmill, feedmill, general store, several farms, and a boarding house in the Oconto area. Despite gaps the records contain data on almost every aspect of the business from logging to marketing, the structure of the company, its operations, its varying financial condition, and its relations with other companies. Later records, 1890-1943, describe the formation and operation of the Holt Lumber Company, successor to Holt and Balcom. This organization was run by William Holt, son of D. R. Holt, with the assistance of other members of the family until the dissolution of the company in 1938.
