About Tatum Brothers Lumber Company, Inc.
Tatum Brothers Lumber Company has been cutting southern yellow pine at Lawtey, in Bradford County, since 1963. Its history page says Tom Tatum Senior founded the company in 1930 in northern Mississippi, starting with a peckerwood mill cutting pine framing, and that his sons Tom Tatum Jr and Charles Tatum carried on the family business and brought it to its present north Florida site, a position in the Southern Pine Belt the company calls a very important part of its formula for success. Tom Jr's sons Tom III and John later bought partnerships in the company, and the plant today consists of a sawmill, two planer mills and a shop. The four owners are described with distinct jobs: Tom III supervises the sawmill, John manages the planer mill, Tom Jr oversees the shop and maintenance, and Charles is the salesman and logistics specialist. The company describes itself as a North Florida based, family-owned business committed to being involved in the local and regional communities that have supported it over the years, and says believing in its employees and creating strong relationships is the key to its success. On products, the site says southern yellow pine's golden colour and wood grain give a consistently high quality product, that the distinctively dense wood offers durability for construction projects, and that its process is highly efficient with nothing going to waste, so an array of by-products is offered alongside the lumber. The office is open Monday to Thursday from 7.30am to 5.30pm and on Friday until 5pm. As described on tatumbrothers.wixsite.com, read 23 September 2026.
