Now, a new museum has opened in its former gatehouse to honor those workers and suppliers.
“It brought us back together,” said Wesley “Chip” Stubbs, who worked in the mill for decades and was foreman of the restoration process.
In 2017, “Still Mill: Stories and Songs of Making Paper in Bucksport, Maine,” an anthology of mill stories, poems and memories, was published as a fundraiser for the museum.
Of the new rooms at the Bucksport Paper Mill Museum highlights the worker’s union.
Making the museum a reality hasn’t been easy, Stubbs said, nor was it simple to turn a team of papermakers into carpenters.
