The Wisconsin Logging & Timber Company was in business from ca. 1908 to ca. 1924. The company was headquartered in Portland, Oregon, but it had logging camps first at Oak Point and then at Stella, both in Cowlitz County.
Oak Point is on the north bank of the Columbia River fourteen miles west of Longview in southwest Cowlitz County. It was named for very large oak trees, some up to thirteen feet in circumference, which grew on the point. They were noted by Lieut. W. R. Broughton of Capt. George Vancouver's 1792 expedition. A post office was established at Oak Point on February 18, 1851 and continued until August 31, 1937. Alexander S. Abernethy was first post master who built and operated a sawmill and later a grist mill in the neighborhood.
Stella is a community at the mouth of Germany Creek on the north bank of the Columbia River nine miles west of Longview in southwest Cowlitz County. It was named for a daughter of John A. Packard who established a store on the site in 1880. A post office was established August 14, 1884.
