A creative snap-shot  look at the history of Duvall and the surrounding area

Time Line

In the early days of Duvall

Two tracks ran into town

The mud was deep

The timber tall.

The Pioneers had been installed

The river boats no longer called

All up the river past "the Falls"

Duvall boasted church and store

The Forest Inn and a dancing floor

A bank and a theater in World War One

Where patriotic songs were sung

Valley Fairs, success was blest

By produce from the valley's breast

Law and order were in the Marshall's hands

Townsmen formed a local Band

The logger walked with his heavy pack

Toward his weather-beaten shack

My memory leads down a lonesome lane

These things I shall never see again

All this and more my mind recalls

In the early days of Old Duvall
