Sometime prior to 1836, pioneer Isaac Gray settled in the heavy timber about a mile south of the Des Moines River and built a home. About a year later his brother George Gray settled close by, but somewhat nearer the river, and built a large log house that was destined to be the "first house in Athens".

As more settlers located in the vicinity, Isaac Gray decided to locate a town site; and, in 1844, with the aid of a surveyor named Jacob Hill, laid out the town in the bluffs overlooking the river. The community had already been named "Athens" by Dr. William Buckner who, some time in 1842, had lived here for a short time. The original town plat of Athens contained nine blocks, each containing eight lots. It was laid out and established in November, 1844, by the pioneer settler of that vicinity, Isaac Gray...It is located on the banks of the Des Moines River, about two and a half miles below the northeast corner of the State. On the opposite side of the river lies the village of Croton, in Iowa.

The census for 1850 Clark Co., MO lists Isaac Gray, sons: Joseph, 27, Robert B., 25, George W., 24, and James W., 21.

George Gray came to Clark County, Missouri, in April 1836 and entered land from the government. He and his older brother, Isaac, laid out the first town of Athens from land belonging to them. George owned and conducted the first general store in Athens, selling everything from a postage stamp to dry goods and building material. He was also the first postmaster. George Gray built the first business house, a store building under the bluff, along the river, on Water Street. Several other business houses were built adjacent to Mr. Gray's store. Mr. Baker foresaw the probability of floods, and built the first building on the bluff -- a long, brick store building facing Spring Street. Others followed suit, and soon Spring Street was the principle business street. The town developed and grew with astounding rapidity, and business houses sprang up on Virginia, Thome, and Hill Streets. ....
George also conducted one of the first stores in Alexandria, Clark County, Missouri from 1837 to 1845.

Gabriel Trullinger

ID: I1331
Name: Gabriel Trullinger
Sex: M
Birth: 2 FEB 1824 in Fountain County, Indiana
Death: 15 APR 1905 in Clackamas County, Oregon
Note:
Gabriel Johnson Trullinger was born on 2 Feb 1824 in Fountain Cty IN. He was
a County Commissioner in 1870. He died on 15 Apr 1905 in Clackamas Cty OR.
OUR PROUD PAST
The first year in Oregon, Gabriel worked in Oregon City at his native trade
of cabinet making. Nathan and Frances headed ten miles south of Oregon City
and settled on Milk Creek near what is now Union Mills. They built a cabin
and started to cultivate the land. A donation land claim was filed for this
land in the Trullinger name...
On 22 July 1852, Gabriel took up a homestead along the banks of Milk Creek
and established a home for himself and his bride, the former Sarah Glover of
Eagle Creek. There in 1854, he built one of the Oregon country's first
sawmills. Untill 1890 only rough lumber was produced. In that year, Gabriel
imported from England what was said to be the Pacific Coast's first power
driven planer. This piece of machinery is now in the museum of the Oregon
Historical Society at Portland. it is not on display at this time. When the
planer was installed, Gabriel and Sarah had been married fifteen years and
had a family of seven - Daniel Newton (b 1853 m Juliet Howard), James Barton
(b 1856 m Nealie Rowell), Edward l. (b 1861 m Mary Martin), Dellazon Lee (b
1863 m Maude Paine), Sara Ellen (b 1865 m Edward Paine), Jane Elizabeth (b
1867 m Frank Paine), and Isaac V. (b 1869 m Elizabeth Crowley). Two other
children passed away. The oldest son, Ben died in infancy and a daughter,
Katherine, drowned in Milk Creek at the age of 12. In 1877, Gabriel put
water power from his Milk Creek dam to work in another mill - this to
produce flour. Trullinger's mill had steel rollers, not stone, and produced
white flour, bran, shorts, middlings, and a product similar to cream of
wheat. In 1879 a third mill for wool processing was added. Wool from the
rural area's sheep was washed and carded, bound for home spinners who spun
their own yarn and knitted garmets for their families. With these three
mills in production, Gabriel gave the name Union Mills to his operations.
Machinery for all three Trullinger mills was brough by ship across the
atlantic, around Cape Horn and up the Pacific coast. It was then hauled by
wagon from Oregon City to Union Mills. From the data files of Terry Esvelt
